Where to put sunglasses

drilling · 03-13-2019, 11:21 AM

Just took delivery of 19 x5

I think F15 had a place in the ceiling to put away a shade but I dont see a thing for G05. Where do you guys put it away?

Front console next to phone or door pocket.

There is a pocket on driver's side beneath the light controls. Its large enough to fit my glasses case.

I store mine in the center console because that compartment is where I keep a gun

Drivers Left side dash compartment perfect for P938 and extra mag.

All of mine are too big for that compartment so I keep my wife's Kimber Micro + spare mag inside

The F15 was worthless for sunglasses : too small and poor design. Good riddance.

Driver's Left Dash...w/o case or weapon. That coin holder/ashtray/black cup thing though; I'm about to trash.

I have been flying not driving and forgot about this storage which I now find useful.

That clip on case for the sun visor looks good

unfortunately living in London and the given crime rates - (if its not tied down its typically stolen) would make the car more of a target, had friends whose car have been broken into for the spare change on display in the ashtray!

the F15 was good with the sunglass holder next to the rear view mirror, had to put with a few scratches given wasnt big enough for the case, just glasses.
