Backed it with Kevlar fabric on hot side and filled the inside with Nomex padding.
Then he sewed a strip of Velcro along the inside bottom for attaching to carpet.
Topped it off with a red leather pull strap to deploy while still seated.
Driver or passenger can tug that red strap and the shield just flops out over the pipe.
Driver and passenger shields simply roll up and fit along the door jam and seat.
Looks really Tier 1.

At full operating temp, I can place my hand on the protected leather side
without time limit and only feel slight warmth.

After years of use the backside Kevlar fabric has no heat discoloration.

has he ever thought of creating for online market ?
