Fifi the failthful Zero black labrador that is.
The Lancer is a hot car, the first I have had in some time with no reflective screen or tinted windows. Its fine in the front with the aircon doing its bit, but further back in the cargo hold, the black lab is getting really hot.
With a 7 hour journey to be done on Saturday and possible sunshine all the way something had to be done.
So today I bought some black stick-on sunshades. Thet are rather like the tinting film you get, and stick to the windows under their own steam. About 10 quid in total and they really block the sun, real pigs to stick on and look really untidy from the outside, but they do the biz just dandy. Two across the rear screen - I can still see out, and one in each rear 3/4 window.
With the aid of a 12v inverter a 5 inch mains desk fan has been fixed to the top of the rear seats to move the cooler air in first class back to economy.
So hopefully 7 hours will see a cool hound at the end of it.
If this works, I will have the rear screen and 2/4 sides tinted.
