Doghouse heat

Anyone do any heat reduction to the doghouse that worked?
I did the 2 layers of kilmat that's reflective backed but mostly to reduce noise which helped alot for noise.
The heat is still too much. Can't use the cup holders or shelf because of the heat.
Just came back from a trip and were stuck in traffic and the heat was crazy.
I know I'm right over the engine so heat is gonna be there.
I've seen a few posts about frost king and fat mat but not sure what works.
My plan is to put an additional layer of reflective on top of the kilmat but looking at what others might have used.

I used Dyna Mat Hoodliner on the Challenger and it worked great.
