Default Sun glasses holder

Does Lexus or any after market co. make a glasses holder that replaces the driver's side handle?

Why Lexus, in their great wisdom, decided to eliminate or not provide an eyeglass holder is hard to understand. The products in the Ebay link look good but I just use the cup holder.

Default Sunglass hollder

I check all of these out but when I input a 2013 ES 350 they indicate it's incompatible.The bolt pattern for the ones on eBay are 164mm, I checked my handle and its about 190mm. Any other ideas guys?

I had an old Rayban sunglasses holder that I put in the map pocket at the bottom of the drivers side door. It fits perfectly there and I just drop my sunglasses in there when I get out of the car. I have folded the top flap of the Rayban holder backward before putting it in the door so it is always open. This has worked well for me and does not require drilling holes in the car.

Since nobody really needs to carry maps anymore, a case in the door map pockets is a perfect place for sunglasses. I've been putting it there, even when I had cars with an overhead sunglasses holder. It allows me to keep a cleaning cloth with the glasses too.

That's what I do with mine.
