Reply to "Hot Battery? Overcharging?"

I do not have hood vents that the trunk temp from the radiator heat caused the battery to appear to be overcharging.
Perhaps I need line the trunk with a product to help keep the trunk cooler?

There are plenty of cars out there without the vents, and discussions about whether they are effective or not. Before investing in a liner, you could put a thermometer up there, take a drive and see what happens (a wireless one would let you see the readout in the cabin so you know how warm it gets when you're stopped in traffic vs. driving on the freeway).
