The only hot place I leave my headphones is in the car while I'm out and about or something, but is that hot enough to damage them? Namely, the m50s and 840s.

I've seen a car phone that warped from being left inside a hot car.

You could definitely funky-up the plastic if it's getting enough direct sun.  I doubt you'll do any serious damage if you at least cover them with something though.

I use a RCA cable to hook up my iphone to my stereo in the car. First cable I used was a cheap RCA, the very first I found. That was a bad idea. The heat from the sun totally screwed up the cable, to the point where I could only hear music coming from one side of the car and also a lot of hissing. I bought a thicker, better quality RCA and it's worked great ever since.
 
Don't underestimate the heat inside a car. I would avoid leaving any kind of electronics in it on a sunny day.
