I went with that. It holds two.

An adjustment for me has been the lack of places to put stuff. I really need to do something about my phone. I'm thinking about getting one of the vent clips.
Ditto!! I had just come from a Honda CRV -- where there are pockets, stashes, compartments within the stashes, and even trap-door hidden compartments all within easy reach of the driver... now, i can't even figure out where to put a pair of glasses for easy reach. :( Knowing this was a Honda, i figured there would be a sunglasses stash... or, at least a loop or hook somewhere to attach a zipper case. That would have been fine for me.

But, if having a sunglass stash would have meant giving up my red seat belts?
well...

hmmm...

not so sure...

I can confirm it isn't the greatest with with thin arms.

I'll probably just get the biggie smalls Versace shades so it works out.

Looking at the sun visor reminds me... Is there a way to remove that big, yellow safety warning that comes on the sun visor, or do i have to live with it? It looks really crappy when using the visor. :(

I still have mine so I can relate. The 2nd gen CR-V especially was full of quirks like that handbrake, the folding cupholder tray, and the best of them all, a boot floor which turned into a picnic table (I use it as my computer desk lol). A lot of people are going to hate me for saying this, but the CTR interior almost feels bland in comparison. Too Germanic in my opinion. Quality and look wise yeah it is more timeless, but it is missing that "JDM" vibe of the 90s-00s if you ask me. Not that I don't like the interior, I love it, but coming from a car full of quirky storage spaces and features, I was expecting something a little more. Oh, back to topic, I don't use sunglasses so I don't mind lol.

Getting back in them
I picked up ProClip's mount and sunglasses holder, which clips to the sun visor. I have been a fan of ProClip for quite some time and now only buy from them when it comes to mounting in my cars. I installed the mount and the iPhone magnetic holder just two days ago in my CTR, and so far, I love it, as I have all my other purchases. I recommend ProClip!
