Wireless Thermometer Transmitter Mod

Hey I just got a new Maverick ET-73 Wireless Unit. I havent used it yet but well I was kicking around with it on my WSM. Well it dawned on me where do people hang the transmitter? I mean with just a 2ft Therm. probe there isnt much you can do. So it got me to thinking has anyone made a bracket to clip it on using the bolts that hold up the grates on the center section? So, I ask how do you guys affix the transmitter to the WSM?
 
You can do this pretty easily. Take the clip on the back of the Mav, pop it off, and put it back on upside down. Now you can hang it from the top of the middle section where the lid rests. When the lid sits down on the clip, it pushes the unit away from the wsm to give it plenty of clarance. Works fine.

I hang mine on the top of my plywood wind screen. I also screwed an electrical box cover on the outside of the wind screen for my Polder thermometer. The magnetic base of the Polder sticks perfectly on the metal plate.
