Nice, I ended up just taping a fan on underneath using HVAC tape applied directly to the heatsink.
The plastic screw thing that holds the heatsink on can become brittle and break after some years. It might be worth picking up some small nylon bolts online before that happens.
Edit: or I guess zip ties would work if it comes to that…

I placed my fan over the heatsink and did an X pattern in zipties to hold it all in place
