You could even add some of those shiny gold /silver insulation blankets to the dividing wall so they keep the cold in the cabin, and reflect the heat back into the cargo area.
Use something light for the divider, like coroplast plates - it's like corrugated cardboard, but in plastic.

To remain road legal, I have to maintain full rear visibility from all 3 mirrors, including cargo visibility. I'll be getting some soft clear sheet (I have no idea what it's called in English, we just call it nylon although it's not) and attaching it to the divider net. It's fairly clear, but if I find it hinders visibility even by a tiny bit I will cut a section out and replace it with some thin lexan I have left over from my r/c days, just enough for a full view of the rear window from the rear view mirror.
