Cockpit heat

I read on here somewhere about dealing with the cockpit heat, but cant find it again. It was something about putting a in-line valve on the heater hose going to the heater core? Also something about keeping a door/valve in the dash open/closed? Ideas? Suggestions?

Thanks

Am I the only one who finds a Floridian Firefighter complaining about excessive heat in the car funny?

True enough, but my shirt is wet with sweat by the time I'm out of the driveway! I have already done the reflectix job. I guess it will also help when I get my A/C fixed!!! ........black interior doesnt help either!
