Insulation above the transmission?

I vaguely remember a thread about putting an insulation blanket above the transmission a few years ago. I can't find it.

I hadn't thought about it, but this summer I had a Chap Stick beside the cigarette lighter and the whole Chap Stick melted. I would think that some insulation above the transmission would help because the whole center console sure gets very warm in hot weather.

Anybody done this???
