I'm watching it carefully because it is also a concern to me. I followed JL install instructions and have 1" of space above the unit. Also there is ventilation through the S in the cover and what you can't see from the above angel there is about 1" space along the front edge where the cover meets the rear of the car. So far it's worked well for me. The last two days have been in the upper 90's and no problem. Although I'm not running the car for hours at high volume either. If I start to see the signs of overheating I will just remove the cover when driving. Since the cover is only for show. Thanks for the kind words and your concerns.
