A mount that moves AC air directly to phone should work.

you can have direct sunlight heating up the phone on a day that AC is not needed

this issue needs to be handled by the device and not with external resources

Or buy a white case. That’s what I did and it seemed to work, as a Sat Nav device at least. Not sure about recording video which will produce more heat.
