Default Where to put my sunglasses?

I'm so used to my Prius which had a sunglasses holder compartment on the center roof. I didn't realized how great it was until now.

Where do you normally store your sunglasses? I'm looking for a place with easy access.

I got one of those cheap sunglasses clip that clips onto the visor from autozone and use that.

Either on the little shelf in front of the nav screen, or I bring the case and store them in the center console.

I put my sunglasses in the cup holder next to the driver.

Thanks for the replies!

I think I'm going to go with the clip on the visor. Found one on eBay for $0.70!

I also put them in a case, and the case in that same cup holder near the console. I had a 2002 ES300, and never used the overhead sunglass holder.

I put my sunglasses in the cup holder next to the console. I use the cup holder next to the driver for my iPhone or any stuff I have with me temporarily.

I put mine in the cubby at the bottom of the door. I leave the sunglass case open (it is an old Rayban case and just drop the glasses in it. Seems to work well.

The lack of storage is a problem in this design. Not only is there not a place to put sunglasses, there is also not a place for gas/toll/parking receipts. And the door-pockets are too short to hold my folding umbrellas. There is more than enough volume. Toyota's that sell for half the price, have more of these little conveniences.

That's what I use too. I bought a soft case that I can just drop them into. They're near me but out of the way. I also keep a small umbrella, a case for my insurance and registration there. It all fits nicely.

I use the cubby at the bottom of the door as well. Keep my slip-ons in their original case for safety. I also miss the convenient holder in the front roof console my previous Acura had and our current Odyssey has.
