Why do people like you feel the need to make these types of comments? I know what I bought and am looking to improve it to fit my needs. if I wanted a Cherokee I'd be shit outta luck these days wouldn't I?

no longer kids in the back, now it is the dogs
and I have the same concern. I bought a couple of fans from JC Whitney for my motorhome, only installed one in the RV, was thinking of mounting one on the sport bar in the back to provide some air flow for the dogs.
They came with a cig lighter plug, but was going to wire it with a quick disconnect, they come with a mounting bracket so you could remove when not needed.

Heat
I insulated my top for a little over $100 because it's been hot as hell here this summer and the a/c was working overtime to keep up. After doing it I was amazed how much of a difference it made.
There are pics of the finished product in my profile.

This is one of the reasons I like the remote start option on my Jeep. I usually crank her up and let it run for about 5 or 10 minutes before we get inside and it is slightly cooled down. By the time we are on or off the road it is comfortable for everyone. When pre starting is not an option I have to direct the middle vents towards the back and it usualy does the job after several minutes.

I would think you could make something super temporary with some flexible ducting that you attach to the outer vents up front, run up the pillars and to the back with velcro. Take it on and off as needed, stash it under the seat when not needed, it's not going to be 100%, but it will get some air moving back there
