Probably seems really silly to most people, but I just couldn't find anywhere to put my sunglasses.

- I don't wanna put them behind the screen - 1) I don't want to wear out the motor 2) I've heard people get the arms of their glasses stuck behind the screen and the screen mechanism then gets stuck.
- I don't put them in my center console because I'm short, so my seat is pulled up quite a bit forward and it's just awkward to open the arm rest from where I am. This is the first car I've had that has the armrest open away from me rather than back towards the car, too.
- I don't like to leave my cupholder lip open.

Maybe I'm just looking for a solution to a problem that isn't there for most people, LOL. But I found this and it seems to work for me!

Just put them in between the sunvisor and the roof. Yah, you can't use you the sunvisor, but if you do, you're likely wearing your glasses anyway.

That works okat for some style of glasses. Depends on the shape of the arms.

Still waiting on my plate from the dealer purchase so I can drive it now that my 30 day has expired, but since these were going outta style, I broke down and ordered one. Last week my Mamo Motorsports Throttle Body came in and soon a new set of wheels for my AS3+ tires will be here! Busy, busy!!!!

Sunvisor clips for my sunglasses and convex mirrors to stick on the side mirrors. Blind spot was too large for my liking with the top up.

Rec’d and installed my Sandyeggo C7 seat skins....took awhile but they look great.....
also rec’d a couple nice 1/4 zip pullovers from corvettecollection.com....these are great on the not so cold days plus they have the little pocket on the sleeve. Like to keep my fob in there. When I have it in my pocket I inevitably pop the trunk.

Post pics of your seat covers. I think there'd be a lot of people interested in seeing them

Heres a couple shots.....they fit pretty darn good....not really digging the center console cover, that will probably come off....
Its a mess of wires and motors under the seat with not a lot of room so you have to be careful where you route the miles of Velcro and straps....

I think the seats look pretty dang good, 2019GSTX! Agree with you about the center console, though. Not sure about that one

Nice!!!
Got my dealer to give me the 2019 brochure when I was there. Sadly it doesn't have Elkhart Lake Blue Metallic in it, still Admiral Blue.... It's nice to have though as part of your collection! Big heavy brochure! More like a small book!
