I live in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida and park the car facing west. Red MS75, Black interior, fill glass roof. The interior heat can be unbearable if I don't put the pre-conditioning on. It is still very uncomfortable for the first 15-20 minutes as the heat is still radiating from the roof glass onto our head and into the interior. The black seats take forever to cool off.
I am starting to experiment with fitting a 2 sided reflective bubble panel to the inside of the entire glass roof panel., to remove the sun and reflect some heat from the glass overhead.
I have made a temporary shield from 2 older windshield sun shields, (bubble style) tucking the edges into the this ledge between the cglass and interior trim. I am reinforcing the pads with 3/4 x 48 " metal braces, also tucked into the edge and supporting the middle of the panel.
Is there a difference in reducing relective heat by using bubble wrap and reflective sides as opposed to a foam core double sided panel?
I was planning to use Reflextic 2 sided bubble panel material as a one piece fitted and supported panel, but I just read that they do not recommend the use of Reflextic on the inside of windows.
Is there a danger of overheating the glass, and having a problem with the edge or frame of the pano roof?
Has aybody tried this or a similiar solution?
