been looking all over in the car and don't seem to find where to put the sunglasses
i know there is the arm rest, the cupholder, but i'm looking for the sunglass holder

I thought it was in the overhead console?

I just heard about the euro sunglasses holder. Typically it's located in the spot where the passenger overhead grab handle (aka, oh shit handle) but on the driver's side. I haven't seen it in the CLA but I know it's common in the EU.

There isn't by default. You'd have to get the store package. With that you'd get the nets in the back, drawers under the seats and some other stuff.

Cool, a drawer under the seats is where I can hide my gun!

I actually sat in one today and noticed there isn't even a space for sunglass storage in the aforementioned location. The passenger location does not receive an overhead grasp handle either. Only the rear seats have handles on either side.

 

[marokino]

nope, checked again and there is no sunglasses holder !
i guess i 'll have to put them in the cup holder .. :-/

JoeyO - of course you have a gun, and that's exactly where you'd keep it!

yes - Euro version also has no sunglass holder nor grab handles in the front.

1 thing that really really annoys me is the cup-holder. an oversight on my part for not spotting that (could've been a potential deal breaker.... just kidding) but you cant even fit a standard takeaway coffee cup in there. my c-class had so much more room in there....

Euro version has sunglasses holder on the roof in the middle if you get the storage package

So what filling up all that space freed up by moving the gear shift to the steering column ?

a deeper compartment where I'm currently keeping my ray bans, but you can't really drop a drink in there. I love my interior too much to be spilling coffee all over it.... by the way, this car is unf'n-believably EPIC!

I got the storage option, under the seats I have a compartment on both passenger and driver, but for sunglasses I have in the middle roof console, right in front of the rear view mirror. Its hard to spot, you just push the console up and there falls a compartment just for sunglass.

I was afraid of losing headroom with both the memory & storage package..... am 6'3"

I have a sunglass holder in my Honda Accord and to be honest the sunglasses got damaged from the heat on hot summer days. So I'd rather save my $$$ and not risk putting them in there ever again.
I guess thats why they have sunglass cases.
