Default How hot do your Sparcos get???

Right now in AZ its warming up. And having an all black interior, with black leather is not the greatest for summers. Especially right now, i dont even have air conditioning. The black leather seats soak up a ton of heat being in the sun for hours. My question is that you who have racing seats, how warm do they get? does the material help them keep cooler or hotter or what?? Do you think they will absorb less heat than my seats now? thanks

Cloth doesn't absorb nearly as much heat as leather.

Carry a towel or something with you. That's what I do.

You can also try seat covers or towels. Both work great as an alternative to tint.

Being that you can't tint your front windsheild (only 6inch) how is tint going to help?

Even tinting your side windows doesn't help at all.

I tinted my windows, I thought it would help. It didn't.

Get windsheild visor thingy.
