Re: sun shine refector ideas needed

I'd be inclined to start with a *** of 3/8 inch exterior plywood with
some mirror tiles stuck to it, and see how that works. That's a cheap
way of getting started, and you can work up to a more complicated
tilting thing if you really need it. Make sure that the tiles are on
securely enough, because otherwise they're liable to blow loose and rain
shards of glass down into the street.

For testing the idea, I'd even use aluminum foil wrapped around that
plywood (shiny side out). Just to see if the light can be reflected
appropriately, and how much adjustment is needed as the sun moves
across the sky. That's a lot less fuss than gluing on tiles, when
we're not even sure (yet) how feasible the idea is.
