Looks like it would make your car very easy to break into.

I bet you can get a package deal for this, the turbonator and a tornado!!!!

I like the ad, it shows a car at 107F and with the auto cool the car is at 75F. That is total BS. If it is hot outside the inside of the car is going to be hot also.

Just crack your windows and be happy with that.

Air temperature might be lower, but all the surfaces are still going to be hot as hell.

It's 110 here so my car gets hot as hell. I got my windows tinted with a good metalic tint and i have a thick sun screen. They keep my car a lot cooler. When i'm not worried about my car getting stolen i crack the sunroof... heat rises... i think it works a little.

this concept is kinda like that of a computer case. only problem is, u need an openning for air to come in so you can create a system of flow. for 40 bucks, this thing is not worth it. and you do not even know the CFM rating until you have it in ur hands. if you already have a solar panel, hook it up to 2 or so large 160mm CPU fans (don't know if that is the size) and mount them on your window. have another window or roof partly open. put up sun shades on the front wind shield window ( i hope you have tints in the rear). you should see a drop in temp, but probably not by much.

ok i take back everything i said above. i saw this for 40 before. but now it's 14?? ok its up to u buddy, can't help you here.

there was a thread on this and it was decided upon that this thing is useless. let me see if i can find it.

check out user "stickercutting" reply. he explains why it does not work, and it is better to just leave your windows cracked an inch or two.
