Sun Covers

Hi,
We go in June to Florida, and I realise its going to be very hot. You know the feeling u get back into the car and the seats and steering wheel are roasting, Is there anywhere you can get covers so that when u get back into car, you take cover off and you've a nice cool seat and steering wheel ?

Thanks
Paul

When you get back to the car just switch on air con full blast and stay outside the car for a couple minutes. It soon cools.
Also go for an SUV with air con seats. Cool air seeping thro the fabric onto your bum... a wired experience first time ( I though I’d weed myself! )
Put a towel over the wheel.

This. Works much better than anything else. Let the car do the work.

I start the car up as I am 100 yards away from it. Then within 1 minute of arriving it's cool(ish)

My big problem is my hands get cold driving due to the air con vents so I like the air con on, cool seats on and heated steering wheel on.

The last couple of cars have had the remote start function. So we tend to use that leaving the air con to do the work (if it was left on) the. After a couple of minutes open the doors and the car is cool.
