    these are what i used, u need to dremmel them down quite a bit(like shave off 70% of the arms) to get them to fit and have the machine back close, but in reality you need to have the back open for them to even work at all for you. if you remember the pic of my m17 in the gen info thread, those are exactly what i used. they use thermal tape to tick to the heat sinks its on the bottom of each ramsink, and they stick real well.
