hi, i put a module once on a camaro, and it came with a different type of heatsink paste, it was a fairly thin petrolium jelly type paste (almost to the point of peing a thick oil). about 2 days later the module packed it in, i then got another module, and i used the proper thick ,white type heaatsink compound, and the module still is working fine.
just make sure u get the thick white stuff. if ya need any i can send a bit to ya, i have a big tube of the stuff.
