It is hugely helpful. My car is still very hot on hot days, but I'm no longer being burned quite as easily by my steering wheel, belt buckle, seat, etc.
The difference is quite noticeable. Especially on days/mornings/etc where it's relatively cool but the sun is hot. The air circulation really does wonders.
