Need help on dealing with extreme heat in the car

I'm going to move to Las Vegas soon, and I'm worried about the summer heat and the interior of my car. I have a leather interior and the midnight blue paint, and even here in Chicago where I live now, I get a very sweaty back when the temp is around 80+.

I do have my windows tinted, dark in the rear with a light tint in the front. I do have the windshield shade and plan to use it a lot.

Any tips on dealing with the heat when your car is parked outside? Should I leave the sunroof open? Leave the windows open a little?

thanks in advance for any advice.

Crack the windows a little and tilt the sunroof, but barely leave the sunroof cover open.

i feel your pain. its gets hella hot here too. i can honestly say the main reason i got rid of my 3rd gen was because the damn leather seats. it looks nice but man does it suck in the summer. you should look into switching someone on the domain for cloth seats. i have cloth in my 4th gen and it helps A LOT with heat reduction. also, you should get a rear window shade. the electronic one. i dont remember the site, but there is a site that someone from the org owns and they sell the shades. other than that, just crack the windows a bit and hope for the best. theres not much more you can do!
