Hello all, well I am picking up my first BMW tomorrow an 06 e60 530xi. Very excited, glad to be a part of the family. My concern is I'm loosing my loved sunglass holder. I've searched through the forums and online but cannot find a mod for this. I know the e39 has a part to retrofit the ash tray into a sunglass holder, but cannot locate one for the e60. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
Thanks!

I guess you're looking for something like this http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7049 ? But for the E60.

My wife gave me a neat one that fits the sun visor. I thought it came from Bavarian Autosports, but can't find it on their pages. I used it in the E39 for eight years before transferring to the E60. Works great and keeps the lenses free of scratches.

Door bin is quite shallow. Seems like it would fall out?
