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

I also use a cool shirt system but still wanted to reduce the heat load in the cabin. To get some air into the car, I opened up the air vents under the front cowl. Its not a lot of air but it helps.

That's what I'm going to do - I'm going to take a square duct - this one in fact



and put it in the passenger side air vent under the cowl - it should fit right in. Then connect a hose to it and have the hose come out under the steering column area. Also debating about putting one of these in-line - and have it controlled by a switch on my dash. I'll see how it does without a fan and go from there.
