    I always carry a white towel in the car door storage and slap that onto the wheel when I have to park on a sunny spot. It helps a bit to make it bearable.

    I just got one of the window shades for my windscreen at the outlet store/flea market. $5 and works ok. Doesn’t keep the interior from being hot, but it does keep everything safe from direct sunlight and all that melty burny ouchy shit.

    Lol I live in Phoenix. I interact with the molten hot steering wheel with rapid slaps. The leidendrost effect is the only way to keep the wheel from gliding through your hand like a light saber.

    One of the absolute weirdest things I have overheard ever was a guy explaining it was so hot he had to lick his hands to use the steering wheel.

    I sometimes think about it and it icks me every time.

    Tips: Depending on local laws, 3M UV blocking film, not tinted. It deflects most of the UV radiation (this is better than those reflecting window blockers you see in parked cars, those actually heat up the interior as the air gap makes the air circulate between the glass and the foil).
    White fluffy towel like surface on the dash. This stops the light bouncing into the windshield and then into the car.
    White steering cover. And break the kitty and pay for a white wrap for the car. In the coming cars, any other color option will not make sense anyways.
