CoolCop body armor air conditioning
You may feel cooler but your partner may not appreciate having that tube on his lap.

Most of us in Asia have to live with the humidity of a tropical climate. So as weird as this CoolCop contraption appears, I can identify with it. Essentially a flex hose similar to what's found on vacuum cleaners, the CoolCop attachment makes it easy to redirect your car's air conditioning into your shirt. The idea is that policemen in the US wear many layers of clothing including a bulletproof vest, so they still sweat in an air-conditioned car.
The company seems to ship only to the US, and the dashboard attachment serves mainly American police car models. But if you really need something like that for our region's over-30 degree midday temperatures, perhaps you can contact the company to check if it will send a unit here. Those so inclined could even try to mod one from an old vacuum cleaner.
