    I keep a spare pair of sunglasses in one of them, just in case I forget to grab my main pair.

    Use it all the time. If it wasn't there I would probably lose my glasses or they'd be getting all scratched up in my center console.

    Shit! That is a great idea! My safety glasses have been riding around in my glove box. Although I'll probably stick them up there and won't remember now...

    A slew of pricey stuff my wife hates me for.
    In my '11 the one in the front is for the door opener (it has a little button spot so you can just push up on it to open the door), the one near the map lights is for glasses.

    Long term I think the garage door panel will make for an excellent place for additional switches.

    Right now I have a spare pair in there, but I like the reading glasses idea. It's a bummer that I need them.

    I keep a pair in there for emergencies. I work at pools and drive a lot for work, so if loose he ones i wear normally, i'll have a second set in the holder.

    I wear Smiths, btw.

    basics - westin nerf bars, extang tonno audio - JVC HU w/ axxess interface mod misc - screen cover for cabin air intake. Weathertech floor mats front & rear.
    kept a pair in there until i went to put them on one day and they shattered. i think sunglasses kind of bake when they are in there while under a hot toasty sun. of course the cheap SOB that i am they weren't the best shades to begin with:rolleyes:

    BTW - is there a mod for that?;)
