All the responses to my "long trip in a TR" thread have moved me to the next step.
Once the outdoor temps hit 80F, I find my right leg almost becomes a "crispy critter" once the engine warms up. The tunnel could double as a George Foreman grill.
I've added insulation material under the jute and carpet, but you can still (almost) fry an egg on that transmission tunnel.
What have you long-distance drivers done to control the cockpit heat in hot weather?
Other topics dealing with this issue have suggestions that are all over the ballpark. There seems to be no really effective insulating material to use, and/or very successful methods of reducing the cockpit heat. I even found several posts recommending a well-known insulating padding to control heat - but it's advertised only as controlling sound and vibration!
Thanks.
