I bought a roll of insulation and made my own. The stuff I used is made of plastic bubble material with aluminium foil on both sides. It is available at hardware and RV stores here in Arizona.

I made a screen for the front window and individual screens for the cabin windows and the rear window. I put two suction cups on every screen execpt the one for the front window which is held in place by the sunvisors.

The rear side window screens stay in place all the time. I put up and take down the other screens in about three minutes.

It helps a lot, but it is still not enough:(
