Default Mod: Sunglass Holder

All credit goes here Macan Forum - Sunglass Holder

Hi guys,

Do you use the driver side grab handle ? Need a place to store your sun glasses ? Here it is


Looking good




I bought the holder for my old Macan, but never had time to mess with it. Since Macan & Q5 share the same chassis, I just retrofit it, for fun. Took me around 2 hours.

Volvo sunglass holder - bought it 2 years ago, can't find link
Grab handle on eBay for $12.xx


Destroyed it


Volvo holder disassembled






Fits like OEM


Looking good


Ignore the white clips, I couldn't find the black handle LOL

You don't use the glove/sunglasses box on the lower left side of the console?

My wife hasn't figured it out yet, and I don't plan to tell her!

That’s why I love this forum. I had no idea this was here. And I like to think I’m pretty informed. 😁

I use this (Croakies Visor Clip)...

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002P68BQM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002P68BQM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Have two in both our cars - one on each visor. Very cheap and works perfectly (even have a pair of reading glasses in one).

Much easier than the retrofit suggested on this thread.

My dad has them on his Honda Passport.
But I prefer the OEM look on my car though.
