Sun Glasses Holder

The Fabia has black headlining similar to the anniversary Golf and I wanted a sunglasses holder so........

I bought a VAG sun glasses holder for approx £11 but it only comes in beige or light grey, obviously my Fabia has black headlining so I had to spray it to match, first removing the chrome trim and padded lining.

I sprayed it with Halfords satin Black and I think it matches the car, and looks totally standard.

I has the standard VW/Audi glide up action and fits the original aperture perfectly. My sun-glasses are a tight fit, but it keeps them clean and safe.

Total cost £14 - total time taken 1 hour (allowed 1 day to dry)

Hi Des.

You wouldn't mind explaining the whole "sunglasses holder" business for me please would you? I don't understand where it fits in, lol :roll:

Plus if I can figure it out and get one for myself it'd be a handy place to keep my specs :D

Cheers

Oh yeah, got any pics also? Many thanks!

IIRC it replaces the drivers side grab handle.

Des, what is the part number for the holder, as I might get one for mine.

Part no is 1j0 857 465 y20 or it could be WAB/03 - 278612. There are two numbers on the box :lol:
