can anyone provide a solution for a nice sunglass holder? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

chenshuo · 01-11-2013, 01:43 PM

i miss my old car which had those sunglass storage box above the rear view mirror. It seems like it'll be inconvenient in this car to grab my sunglasses from the glove box or the center console when i'm driving. I have a nice Ray-Ban so if i just put it in the glove box or center console i have to put it in its case. This adds another level of inconvenience. Just wondering if anyone there is doing something about this.

i'm hoping if there a company that can develop something like in the picture for our cars.

I don't know how fragile your glasses are but on the drivers side sun visor there is a strap that can be used to hold items like maps and/or sun glasses.

You can have this sunglass clip if you can cover postage

i bought a sunglass clip like the one in the above post from target for 3 dollars, and wrapped the colored part in carbon fiber vinyl. Looks pretty sweet to me.

My Sundog sunglasses came with a soft pouch with a drawstring. I just looped the drawstring over the shift lever and let it hang off to the side of the tunnel. Doesn't get in my way... close by to grab.

There seems to be a good amount of space right in front the dashboard.

I just ordered one of these http://store.croakies.com/shadedock.aspx
It's one hand operation and no moving parts so less chance on breaking. It looks higher quality than other clips too. I'll test it out when i get those.
