I agree on the cabin heat. My boxster came with an integrated cool shirt system - but I took it out for the weekend we both drove since my wife had an instructor and I didn't want the hassle of taking it in and out.

Car was really hot as there are no air events in it anymore. Not being that familiar with the car - I didn't know that this piece comes off. Insulating it should work well. I might have to give this a try.

I'm also working on a way to draw air back into the cabin. I'll post pics when I start working on it.
