I use the same type of thing but I only have the one, I do however think that you really shouldn't need them. The biggest problem is that "modern" cars seal so well that they can't breath naturally, and also have a large area of glass and steeply raked windscreens.

My wife leaves her front windows in her Chevrolet Spark cracked open a bit and it does reduce the amount of condensation compared to when they are closed. It does lead to other problems tho', her car obviously is colder when you get in it and it could lead to insurance ramifications for obvious reasons. The only positive is it proves that not only Rovers suffer with condensation.

I'm waiting to see what happens over the next few weeks to see if the bubble wrap improves things or not, today everything was dry but that may because the air is slightly drier, time will tell and I'll report back any findings.
