Hey everyone - I have a baby who's in her car seat when we drive. Summer has arrived (thank god) and I was surprised just how hot surfaces get during a drive even with the amazing UVA/B protection inbuilt on the windows.
I've seen posts asking what shade people use but still looks like no one's cracked it yet. In our last car we had a sock type of shade which went over the door frame. Given the windows in the Tesla don't have a frame and they move when closed, I don't feel confident putting the sock on there that it wont damage the seal. That shade really kept the sun off and kept the surface area in the car cool.
So now I'm thinking about getting a dark tint in the back windows. Looks good (in my opinion), substantially limits the temperature pass through according to the product website... maybe this is the best option? Has anyone taken this approach or any other to reduce that in-drive surface heat gain?
