I attemped trying to find something using the search and also google, but really only saw the rear insulator pad and dynomat.

What other ways have you kept the rear trunk from getting too hot? Lately I have been laying a moving blanket in the back when I want to take the car to the grocery store, so I can keep the plastic bags from melting to the metal. I would like something I can leave in the trunk and not worry about it.
