On a hot day I left my 5d3 and lens in my car's trunk...any damage?

Direct sunlight is what can kill it faster. Batteries are replaceable so no worries there. I use my Canon gear in 100+ temps all of the time and I leave them in the trunk for a day or so in 105+ outside temps with no issues. I am using pro bodies (1Dx, 1D4, 1Ds3, 1Ds2) which probably helps quite a bit.

Stay away from humidity and direct sunlight when possible and don't worry about the rest.
