I second the cabin heater, I do that in my normal cars and its great! It'll also help your wh/mile.
I will post some pictures of the material later tonight. It's two pieces of corrugated plastic with flexible insulation sandwiched in between. Since installing it I have not seen the pack go below 39F, even when it was 10F out. I also have the exhaust from the charge venting into it which helps in heating it up at night.
