hey guys, i just got my 2018 NX300 a couple weeks, and trying to figure out where everything is. hope you guys can help me.

1 - does NX300 has a sunglass holder?
2- how many 12 volts charger i have? so far, i only find one inside the arm rest compartment. but feel like it is strange to leave your GPS on the dashboard and plug your GPS there to charge, without any distraction from the hanging wires

thanks a lot for the help in advance.

dont know about 2018, but 2016 has alleged sun glass holder under the mirror compartment in front of the armrest.
yah strange no 12 volt except for inside arm rest.
Even the new UX is shown at auto show with connections on back of console for back seat.

There is also another 12v receptacle on the driver side rear panel in the hatch area.

I agree, even in my is350, the 12v outlets are in goofy places, i got around this by hardwiring a 12v to 5v adapter using an add a circuit under the driver side dash.

What others are mentioning for the 2016, is the same for the 2018 ... (One in armrest and one in cargo area)
Bought a sun visor sunglasses holder ...

If you want to plug your GPS directly into a USB, I vaguely remember a post a couple weeks ago about a guy adding 2 USB ports to the blanks near the heated steering wheel, parking assist, and 4x4 buttons. Do some searching. You will find it. It looked really clean.

On a different note, I added a super long usb cable and routed it into the 12VDC in the center console. Either the cable extender kills the voltage or that long of a cable looses voltage. I can only get a small charge on my phone while plugged into the "long" cord.
