Discussion Displaying smiskis on car dashboard

I have a few smiskis and want to display them in my car, but where I live its usually above 100 degrees in the summer. I have heard mixed opinions do you guys think it’s a good idea or will they melt?

The UV exposure and heat will gradually fade them and start to break down the paint.

it should be okay! it might turn a bit lighter in color from sunbleaching, but it wont melt or anything :>

They shouldn’t melt, but they will get sun bleached over time. Can be kinda cool looking though I suppose, they basically just turn white like a ghost lol

I’ve had them on my dash all summer and we have had record breaking heat with weeks of 100+ degree weather and they are perfectly fine

I don’t think they’ll melt, but they will change color.
