      It’s the same if it has this silvery surface which reflects radiation. Also don’t expect miracles. If you park in the sun, the air inside will still be super hot. The actual advantage is that your dash, steering wheel and seats won’t be lava when you get in the car.

        Ah sad… because I looked all around my Workplace. There is not one single parking spot in the shadow… So my car will still be burning… I was exited here for a second.

      You can use the same Windshield in winter and summer (I did many years). When it is used from outside, it helps even more against the temperature.

      It is a bit more fun though, to use one with big eyes to be positioned inside and make your car look like from Cars movie. Example on Pinterest

      We have the red version (strangely ours was much cheaper here in Germany than what I just found on Wallmart website) in our little red Toyota and aside from keeping the car cooler it is looking really cute.
