i bought a sunshade that is meant for the frs for like $20 on amazon. it fits perfectly.

how much was the tint for the car?

Febreze them seats!

But truth be told, unless you are on a long trip you should not sweat much unless you don't run the AC. Even when I drive to LA (about an hour each way) I don't feel like I am drenched in sweat -- at least enough to effect the seats or my comfort level.

I really wish they gave us a chilled seat option rather than heated seats that I will never use.

Not true.

It's only illegal if you exceed the legal limits. You can use a clear UV-only tint on the fronts.

As already stated, tint and a sunshade. The OEM sunshade is perfect. Definately worth the money.

Lol shifter sweater.
I just burnt my hand(exaggerating a little) on my steering wheel going out to lunch. I have 20% tints on sides/back,80% on front, and Covercraft sunshade....How is that possible?!

Live in suburb of Phoenix, and have been procrastinating on getting a tint. But just using a sunshade I haven't had too many problems.. Although the only time it sits outside is at work for 8 hours..
