Unfortunately, blocking the sun isn't necessarily going to help as you will find MANY examples of 3LT garage queens on this forum that have very little exposures to sun/heat that have had dash cracking-delaminating issues, some more than once.
Some 3LTs in colder northern states have the issue and some in places like Florida, Texas, Arizona have not.

I use a similar one, plus have UV protective film on the inside of the windshield. So far so good.
