tints, window shades, i have them, i need to go darker on my tint, and i want to find some window shades for each window, to block out all the light. that would be the easiest way, even thought i have a black car and it's gonna get hot anyways....

I'll post back in September then....it'll be hotter than hell. I'd settle for 115 degree dry heat than a 100 degree heat with 70% relative humidity.

Funny, I got a remote start thinking only of the benefits when starting your car in the winter. I guess it helps too on hot summer days.

that's why I love california weather. Especially in the South Bay area where the sea breeze just comes through your windows right when you open it. And I hardly ever use AC, because when i roll the windows down...WooHOOOO
