One other trick is to use pre-conditioning to ventilate the car before you head out. I use it with the engine disabled, so it just runs the fan to exhaust the hot air.

Definitely wearing shorts and T shirts whenever possible is key to staying comfortable.

Thanks for reminding us about preconditioning and ventilating the car.

Sheepskin Seat covers!

Have had them in every convertible I've had since 1981.

Put them on in May or June and take them off in October. NEVER burn your legs or sweat because of a hot seat.

Yes, they do help but unfortunately I never liked the way they looked, most especially in a convertible when the top is down.
