There is no sunglass storage in the LC, I made one. Bought a leather case with magnet from Amazon, glue it with double side glue tape. Works perfect.

If you place them on the dash board the way you have it on the photo, wouldn’t they get direct sunlight and get hot during extremely hot days, esp if u have metal frames? I could imagine this might be an issue in warmer areas during the summer such as Az, nv, Utah.

Have you considered using magnetic strip tape (magnet to magnet)? Allows you to remove the case from the dash as needed should you want to take the case and glasses w you or something?

I hate that we have to figure out a place to hold our sunglasses. I'm using the magnetic-flap visor clip. It's meh...

Yeah, it's hot when I take it out, has to apply the air conditioning for a while before wearing. But I don't see anywhere else that is more convenient and easy to apply. Here I can take it out and put back just use one hand. A magnetic strip tape sounds like a good idea, thx.
 
What about consider putting the case above the rear view mirror and using the magnetic strip (2 pole magnetic strips) to attach it to that box for the electronics (see photo) and the other side to the case or perhaps rbetween the ac controls and center console (see photo).
Want to clarify that u can’t use the one sided magnetic strips and stick one to the dash and use the same to stick to the case. If u plan to do this you would have to get the magnetic strip that comes w opposite poles.https://a.co/d/eI6AZF3

Just realized that w the type of glass case you have u might be able stick it on the underside of the ac controls. Might have enough room to have it hang upside down and hopefully glasses won’t fall out
