Someone had done this last year with an inside/outside thermometer It keeps the inside cooler IIRC. Check the archives...

Bruce Nadig asked:

Can anyone offer any hard and fast data (data is what I am looking for, not conjecture) showing that dark tint retains heat? I can believe and accept that dark may be less effective than reflective. But my question is whether or not dark tint does not work or is actually counter-productive.
