Thanks for the update on the install info. I'll give it a shot.

Too bad about having to park this beauty outside. I have to do the same thing, but i try to minimize the damage.

I use car cover over the weekend when i don't drive the car. I use it on weekends during work so the car is parked under the shades at work and when i come home it's already dark so the sun's damage is minimized.

I also placed sheepskin seat covers on the front seats and i place a large sunshade on the rear seat cushions to cover the leather (back seat doesn't get used at all so it's alright).

Sunshades on the windshield and a portable rear window shade completes the interior protection.

The most damage that sun could cause is diminishing the leather seats, cracking them and killing the overall finish.

There's nothing i can do with the wood trim, unfortunately. They remain faded and slightly cracked.
