Get those sun rejection window films like V-kool, Huper Optik, Rike Kool, Nanolux etc but it cost some $$$.

This things will not stop the car from heating up when parked under sun for more than 2 hours. However, they will significantly reduce the time needed to cool things down.

Cheaper alternative is to use those shiny blinds/ or boards/ or what even they call it. Most car accessories shop have them. Can also get those that stick to your glass and can roll-up.

there is a product call e-cool by STAR
in sim ming autopoint..

ard 300-400 bucks
a electronic device... when too hot it will activate and cool ur car frm using ur car fan blowing in outside air to cool the inside... keeping ur car a lot cooler

not a bad thingy.

Wind down your windows, leaving a small slit, not much but at least a channel for hot air to dissapate. Laughing

If that doesn't work, you can always poke holes in the roof so that the hot air can escape... Laughing

Now you know why they're called sunroofs right? Laughing

You can wind down all the windows, if not at least the 2 front side windows as you drive off after parking in the hot sun. After 2-3 mins, wind the windows up with air-con on. You’ll find it cool faster this way.

With leather seats, the moment you sit in, you are toasted. With V-kool, I heard just on the air-con for about 5mins before entering the car, and it will be as cool as your air-con. The seats I mean.

Install fans in your seat, might be even faster... Mr. Green ...like those found in certain mercedes high end model...
