Default Cd player relocation (heat related question)

I want to relocate my HU into my glove box but am concerned that it will get too hot and damage the player.

Am I worrying too much or should I think of another place to hide it?

In my old CRX, I had a Indash TV, and I had to relocate my CD Player.
I just moved it down bein the center console.
I didnt even mount it, didnt have to. I was going to, but since it never moved I didnt bother.
Good place for it as the wires reach no prob and it's easily accessible.

As for your ?, IDK if that would be a prob...
