Phoenician pro-tip: crack your car windows to avoid getting into a broiling oven after work.
Also, front window reflector shields that you put up when your car is parked make a massize difference
I went and bought one of those for my dark colored vehicle, today is the first day I’m using it. I remember it helping on another vehicle I used to have, but that one also had tinted windows.

I've found that leaving a few windows cracked is more effective than the shades, but doing both certainly can't hurt.

Except that I get rain where I live, so leaving windows cracked can be a bit of a gamble sometimes and I have to stay alert.

I used to have these little visor things that covered the top few inches of the side windows, that helped a lot because I live somewhere where it can suddenly rain.
You know, I've seen those on cars occasionally but it never actually twigged until now what they were for. I'm one of today's lucky ten thousand. I'm going to see if I can find a set of those.
It’s easier to find them the more common the vehicle is.
