I recently picked one of these up. I'll try to do a video of the swap/install when I have some time to get it in the car

Does it interfere with sunvisor when you move the visor to the side?

it does hit it. But it's it's still low enough that you can push it all the way to the side

Smart! I just bought these so that the case fits in the driver side door pocket.

Looks like there's a ton on eBay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Car-Sunglas...JbYZKT&vxp=mtr

seems to be a universal product for all cars. Not a bad idea! I'd probably wrap it in velvet or some other fabric so it doesn't look so cheap.

Be careful though. The OP said that he tried bunch from amazon and ebay but had to mod them. Thats why I went with the same one he bought from AliExpress. I will update once I receive and install it.

Alli Express is a legit site, it’s a Chinese company that is why it’s not exactly perfect lol.

So eBay is not the correct one? I don’t like ordering from Aliexpress.

I've only found that the one from Ali express working on my car. They may look similar but distance between the mounting points are usually different
