I believe you guys have also missed one big thing that should help you keep your car cooler.

Insulating the roof. I know that once temps get higher than 90 degrees here I can feel the heat coming through my headliner. And of course, behind the headliner is nothing more than the bare roof.

So I am planning on insulating my roof with sound supressing filler, the same used in speaker boxes (Looks like cotton) to see if it absorbs some of the radiating heat and therefore help me cool the vehicle.
