Default Oregon Scientific BAA968HG - Sensor positions

I have a similar unit.
Sensor one, is cable tied to our imitation
water pump windmill (like the wind pumps in america
but only 6 foot tall).
Just underneath the top platform so it never gets heated by direct sunlight.
Sensor two, is on a small bracket arrangement, just touching
the grass.....this unit has so far lasted 14 months on its batterys
although it sees the greatest amount of cold/damp/slugs/earwigs).
Sensor three is stuck to the inside of the windscreen of my car ... gives
me an early ice warning ... so i have time to scrape down before work!!

Ok, so I've just bought one today and have an issue with where to put the
sensors. They are bright white with a digital display on them. The

problem
with this is that they appear very pinchable and I guess I'll have to buy
some sought of a screen to put it into.

I wondered if anyone has come up with an ingenious idea to disguise them.

Currently it's sitting on my garden seat reading a temperature of -2.9C
which I doubt is correct.
