I have a CYV and the garage door is a non-insulated one layer door. On a sunny day, this generates a lot of heat into the garage. What I did recently was to purchase some Styrofoam panels from Lowes and cut them to fit into the door. There was a remarkable difference in temperature. It's an easy DIY project, for the typical CYV garage door you will need six 4x8 panels and a razor knife to do the job. Took me about 2-3 hours.
