Window tint to protect from heat?
Up here in the Great White North, at least in my area, spring seems to have sprung. In order to combat excessive heat in my 911, I am considering a light window tint. My AC, like most everyone's, is less than adequate in keeping the interior cool, especially after sitting in the sun for a few minutes. I don't really want tint in my car, but if it helps keep the sun and high temps at bay, I would do it. The dark paint with dark interior and big horizontal rear window really do make it tough to keep the occupants from melting.
What I am thinking of is a tint of about 50% light transmissibility, which is a pretty light tint. The manufacturer claims 43% heat rejection. I don't really want to go any darker, as the gangsta look is not what I'm looking for.
What is the opinion of readers here? Is this a dumb idea? Will it actually help or do not very much at all?
