    If it's hot outside, the solar roof/fan will not make it any cooler than the outside temp, and probably ~ 5 degrees hotter.. Although 90 degrees out & inside the car is a lot better than 120-130 degrees you would proablyu have without the windows open, or solar ventilation.

    It is a pricey toy but I like it............. It does help the seats get hot in the fake leather
