Are these 3d printed? If so, what kind of filament? Just want to make sure it won't melt in the hot California heat and leave glow in the dark goop in between doors.
PLA is a lot more resilient than people give it credit for, especially if it is not weight-bearing when it's hot. Temperatures below 150F shouldn't be an issue. Since this isn't inside your car, it's likely not a problem. Although, if it was inside, then you'd have temperature protection anyway. Either way, it's not really an issue. The only issue I see is the cost/value but to each their own.

They work great! I love the glow in the dark ! Great idea for decreasing fingerprints!
