I plan to do this myself, but the question I have is has anyone else done this and does it make that much of difference. The AC salesmen I talked to said it could lower the temperature in the garage by as much as 20*. Living in MN, I know just having your car in the garage during the winter can have that much affect. Just trying to do some fact checking and look for product recommendations.
I bought and installed myself styrofoam from White Aluminum on 441. comes in 8 and 12 foot sections. They will cut it in half for you. Don't remember how many sheets or how much.
