white foam side or the reflectorized aluminum side? I take it the aluminum
should fact the outside but then again I don't know. Let me know.

>>>That depends on where you want to REFLECT the heat.  Do you want to keep 
heat OUT of the cabin?  Or do you want to keep it IN the cabin?  If you like 
driving around and sweating your balls off, then by all means put the 
reflective material towards the inside.  If, on the other hand, you want the 
reflective material to REFLECT the heat AWAY from you, then put it facing the 
heat source.  That means aluminum facing the firewall, facing the water tubes 
and facing the sun! :>)
