My roofless Humvee has had similar black vinyl seats for two Minnesota summers. I have an clean shop towel wedged in between the chassis and seat. I throw it down on the seat because it gets hot as hell if I leave it parked in the sun.

it also doubles as a rag I use to wipe off the seat after a summer shower or wiping down the inside of the windshield/mirror if needed.

Also it's not like black black. Kinda gray black. But I got in October so I haven't had the July/August sun to opine. But I've got the flaccid top so I would just go carriage mode if it was blazing.
Flaccid top. :LOL::ROFLMAO::LOL::ROFLMAO:

If it is that hot out sit on a towel. Beach days are exactly why i like the mgv. Jump in with wet trunks and off you go. Just like in our winters starting it up and letting the ac run for a bit will greatly help

I got mine July 4th. The seats definitely get hot, but never got “sticky”. The BL vinyl seats are very comfortable on long trips and never have me “swamp “ anything 😃 I prefer them to my last cloth seats and the leather in our current Explorer. No way I would trade them for cloth.

They make these things called seat covers.

ive had my BL since June. It does not take long for seats to get hot with the top off. My wife would have to sit on something when the top was off bc seats were so hot.
I purchased the mesh Bimini top problem solved. I could leave in direct Sun all day and seats were cool

Any day it was sunny this is how I drove it! Sat outside in direct Sun all day

If there is something you are wanting on the Badlands, I wouldn't let the seats be the deciding factor. When I purchased my JK new, it had vinyl and I wanted the OK Essentials cloth. A few hours work with the hog rings, and the seats were completely switched over. (I'm fairly confident that you can trade the MGV for anything you want) It's not a difficult process. That said, I absolutely love the MGV interior. Seat materials are an easy, do-it-yourself swap.
