Stickers on a MBP and heat

How will stickers/decals on the lid of my (2014-ish) MacBook Pro impact the heat dissipation? Major impedence, or negligible?

Best answer: The hot parts (cpu/gpu) are on the bottom part of the case. Stickers on the lid won't hurt anything except resale value.

Best answer: Yeah, there's not really any heat dissipated by the top lid.

Best answer: +1 to the above, from me and Apple marketing to boot :)
