The baffles (14) include inside (28) and outside (30) edges extending continuously along the lower surface (18) of the cover (12) having female dimples (52) disposed therein matingly shaped to interlock with corrsponding male studs (54) on the lower surface (18) of the cover (12). The inside (28) and outside (30) edges of the baffles (14) are thermally bonded to the lower surface (18) of the cover (12). A plurality of narrow vent slots (60) extend along the baffles (14).
