OK - this is barely worthy of the Interior Modifications thread, but here goes:
Up 'till now I've been storing my sunglasses in the console box. Major hassle getting them out and putting them back in that console, especially in traffic. I had originally ordered my Bronco with the sunglass door up by the mirror, just like I was used to in my 2001 F-150, but then I decided that I had to have all those cool switches up there, and changed my order.
One day my mechanical engineer brain had a thought, and I tried it out. This was after seeing a $95 steel basket that could be installed just aft of the overhead switch panel. Here it is:
I has some Scotch "extremely strong" fasteners in my too box. These are like Velcro, but way stronger. I've used them to attach add-on electronic modules to plastic surfaces on my motorcycle, and they've always held tight.
I stuck one strip to the back of my glasses case and one strip to the plastic surface on the switch module. Here's a side view, showing how they're stuck together:
Here's a static view from just aft of the sunglass holder:
Easy peasy to get my glasses now!
Like I said, it's a small deal, but very simple.
