The tray with rubber forward of the gear shift selector seems to work well.
+1 Works fine for me, too!

I keep my sunglasses in the small glovebox/storage compartment under the steering wheel by the driver's door.....
Unless your sunglasses are made from glass, you don't want to put them anywhere but their case. Polycarbonate, plastic and hi-index will all scratch to some degree. Our moto is "If it's not on your face, its in the case". They also risk bending and getting out of adjustment and you'll lose that nice fit. I'm assuming you have an expensive pair of glasses. It would look silly to be sitting in a 50K+ auto with a cheapo pair of suns.
Additionally, the time your eyes need protection from harmful UV rays is outside the car, so maybe you should consider wearing them at all times. I wear mine even on cloudy days. UV damage can lead to cataracts. Not good!
