One of the things we've been told is the key is to keep the heat from ever getting INTO the coach -- stopping it, if possible, outside. So using reflective shields on the inside isn't as effective as using them on the outside.

We have Magneshades, and while they're pricey, we felt they were worth the expense since we live & camp largely in So. California. They work well! If we were ever in an area where the heat was intolerable we could use the reflective shields between the Magneshade and the window on the outside. I bet the difference would be even more effective.
