What about a UV blocking clear material?

That would be needed. It is still the intensity of the heat coming
through if you are stuck in traffic or something on a 120-130 F day. I
find with the plastic doors even the sun coming through the windshield
to be deep hot feeling.

I wear long sleeves lots when running with the bikini on or on trips so
I can roll down the sleeves when my arms get hot enough. It is really
intense some days and constant burns aren't a good thing.

The sunroof on our Cherokee can be intense, It has a crosshatch tint,
but still gets hot and can be irritating.
