so If I understand you correctly you want to eliminate the heat on the inside of your windows frames? You really cant eliminate the heat but using sun shades or some type of cover may work short term. The short term meaning that it should keep it cooler for most of the day but not all day. Another option would be to get some padding for in the inside of your trailer. Have some nice upholster applied to the inside of the window.

hot window frames

If your frames are metal I would try painting them silver or white. The test for that is put your hand on a black car in the sun then try a white car. Big difference! Gerry
