Don't Let Your C8 Corvette Trunk Get Hot - Watch the Fix!

So the rear trunk in the C8 Corvette gets annoyingly hot. Enough to ruin frozen and cold groceries. I came across a great fix for that and we talk about it in todays video!

Great idea. If I didn’t have the Eventuri intake with the glass I would definitely do this. Great video.

[@NuHorizonC8]

Id wonder actually cutting around the glass opening to cover the other areas. Could get some benefit at least id believe. 😎

I went a step farther. Since a large amount of heat may be coming from the air box area, I put additional insulation on the inside of the air box access panel. Even after long trips, I do not notice any concernable heat in the rear trunk anymore. Easy fix, GM should have done something along these lines.

[@NuHorizonC8]

Thats a good extra bit to do! I may try and see about getting more insulation and seeing how much more improvement I can get honestly. Theres a few more spots I know I could have a bit more insulation in. Thanks for Commenting!

I started doing door dash. I get much better tips when I use the Z06. Food is warmer and more delicious. Don’t fix it if ain’t broke… lol.

[@NuHorizonC8]

The HTC C8s you can fit a pizza box right over the engine bay and it keeps it nice and toasty!!!

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

@@NuHorizonC8 we both love Pizza… Another strong video. Take a look at it again. With your head mount I got a little motion sensation. I may have had you at high speed. I also bought some cool magnetic LED lights that might work good for shots like this. The new drone is cool too.

Really informative video.
Thinking of installing heat shielding on my C8 and this was super helpful!
Thanks

[@NuHorizonC8]

Glad this could help! Thanks for the comment! 😎👍

[@jamesh1641]

Math isn’t your strong point but your video was engaging.

[@NuHorizonC8]

Thats an interesting point since I'm an Aerospace Engineer in real life lol. But your not wrong. I suck at simple math numbers and prefer letters in my math problems lol. Thanks for the comment!

[@Inpreesme]

This is far too expensive for what you’re actually getting purchase the Insulation from the hardware store. Save yourself a lot of money.

[@dshindo1837]

Yup $15 for an 18” role . Used it as sound deadening in the trunk and doors of my 2010 Camaro.

[@joedillard5096]

Our C8 trunk doesn’t get hot. I don’t understand the problem.

[@wazzman8760]

Great install. On another note, have you looked at a ported throttle body?

[@rancebagby2722]

New subscriber thanks for the info. My 24 is in production, I would think the installation would be the exact same.

[@NuHorizonC8]

Hey rance thanks for subscribing! 👍 Yes the install will be exactly the same way! Congrats on the New C8! 😎

[@1alphaq]

doing a cat delete reduced temperature quite a bit

[@edstingray3828]

I just cut .3 hard board insulation from Lowe's. It so simple I put two.

[@Mark-wb1vl]

Excellent video!!, do you ever get any condensation under the trunk lid?

[@NuHorizonC8]

Hey Mark thanks! I do no have any condensation at least in my case and area. Fort Worth TX 😎👍

[@artbaer3122]

Thanks for the vid. How about trying frozen foods again and let us know the results?

[@NuHorizonC8]

Hey Art thanks for the comment! I actually did try out some frozen groceries after I installed the heatshield and it made a significant difference. Even with a stop getting gas after grocery shopping and a 20 minute drive home, things stayed pretty cold actually. Definitly worth it! 😎👍

[@fv1291]

Just don't put heat sensitive things in your trunk. 😊

[@71grayghost]

From the looks of you, That double cheese pizza and pepperoni was definitely going on the trunk.😂

[@antonioimbriano4273]

Use an suv to go grocery shopping…please leave the c8 stock….

[@pryerpalm10103]

Use the front trunk.... and do you really think any electronics coming from over seas is in a air cooled container? What a waste of time and money

[@pryerpalm10103]

Who cares if the trunk gets hot,,,,is anybody riding in the trunk. What a joke, and please don't saying your ice cream will melt spiel... there is a front trunk... waste of time and money

[@NuHorizonC8]

It would be interesting if you wanted to store certain things both in the front and the back and keep them from at least getting hot. It may not interest some having that level of practicality but I know others might find it useful. In any case thanks for the comment!

[@jwnrocks]

Uhhh, it’s not just about ice cream. If you have expensive electronics like laptops, mirrorless cameras, etc you’re definitely thinking this is a good idea. Also, if your bride is packing her makeup stuff, do you want to take the blame for ruining it? I think not. Happy wife, happy life my friend…
