I really liked the original idea, seems elegant and keeps a factory look in the interior. However, I bet that sensor isn't truly weather proof, putting it in the engine bay instead of the cabin may result in a short life, or even worse, inconsistent throttle application as it gets dirty. I'm glad the bracket ended up being a fairly simple fix.
