With the 6.5mm sockets, there's no need to send it back to them inorder to solder it to the board. I'd just do what Sparky said: solder it directly to the sockets. And besides, those connectors will act like an extra heatsink since they'll suck a bit of heat from the board and dissipate it with air flow. I won't be using heat shrink on them for that purpose. Heatsinking will be very limited though and the whole thing is simply one big heatsink in it's own right. :)

I'll be ordering one as soon as it is available....God's willing! :)
