My Swift which I had for ten years had the 1L engine and no air. I endured the very few super hot days that we have here in the Northeast. The bags of ice are a great idea, and yes, not only is it very expensive to have AC professionally installed; your gas mileage while using it WILL drop like a rock, as was commented above.
I remember one time I drove from San Diego to Salt Lake City. It was over 100 all day, but I had a 5 gallon jug of water with me, so I just spent the entire day misting myself by spraying water on my face, head, and neck - and that kept me totally cool and comfortable. And that is yet another solution which can be implemented immediately by you for less than $1, by buying a sprayer at the dollar store.
