Default Sunglass Holder

What are you using for a sunglass holder? I can't find where to put my sunglasses when I'm done with my drive. Anyone have a good solution?

I fold the ear stems, lower the drivers side sunshade and slide them over the end of the visor.

Small door pocket. Or on my face.

I used to wear them. But recently with the COVID-19 facemasks they'll fog up. So I've had to leave them in the car if/when I'm going into a public place. So far, the space between the Shifter and the A/C Temperature/Fan Controls seems to be the default parking spot. Like others, I keep a spare set in a soft bag (made for glasses) in the forward Drivers Door pocket.

Maybe someone in the aftermarket could come up with a set of pockets in the front footwells like the 356's had. There's room there. A dual layer replacement for the molded single layer carpet that covers the Fuse Box area would be a nice and useful addition . . . . IMHO.

I bought 3 of these. 1 for my car and 2 for my wife’s whose glasses were all over the car and scratched. They are soft and padded and will not scratch the glasses. Fit over the visor, easy to slide the glasses in and out.

Put them back in their case in the glove department, reminding me to get my mask from there also (really hate I have to write that).

That looks clean and easy access. Do you have a link to where you bought them?

I was able to track it down visually. Search <Douglas Car Visor Sunglass and Eyeglass Leatherette Holder>

The best price I could find was on Amazon.

Simple and easy, bought black which is not noticeable at all and easy to get the glasses in and out and can be adjusted to fit different glasses. Not as James Bond as the previous poster but it works and its out of the way.

If you create a new video with a 992 I think that would help. My car's console area looks nothing like that.
