Hitachi UltraVision TV question!

[misle]

A friend of mine has a Hitachi UltraVision TV model number 36UX58B. It has a problem with overheating. It will be on for ~20 minutes then shut it self off. They said if they took it in to have it repaired, it would cost about $300 (supposedly a new one is around $500). They offered to give it to me.

Any one know how to fix the TV or know where I can find information about this TV?

Could I just rig up a couple fans inside it to keep it cool?

I don't know anyway to cool it besides some kind of rigged fan system.

Cut some 120mm holes all over the back of the TV, and add 120mm fans, connect them to an old AT PSU, and power them up when watching TV.
