damn, didn't mean to post twice, the server wasn't responding so I didnt think it had posted the topic. Maybe a mod can delete one of these threads (or is there a way for me to)?

Do you have glasses in the case holder? I often hear a rattle and it drives me nuts until I realize it's my shades rattling in the holder. I wear glasses so either my shades or my regular glasses are in there all the time

I had the same problem

But the fix is really easy - and saves your sunglasses too - get a scotch microfiber cleansing cloth (they are about wash cloth size, and cut it to fit a wrap around your sunglasses - keeps them from rattling, gives you MF cloth to wipe the lenses!

I wish acura (and other makers) who are nice enough to give you a sunglasses holder, would line the damn thing.

A V-AFC will fix the rattling.

Yup ... last time I wife stored her sun glasses in there and I made loud rattling noise and we could not figure where it came from but finally we nailed it.

Acura should have put a layer of cloth like they put on the coin holder in there.

Cheers !!!

I wish the problem was just my glasses rattling (I wear them when I drive so its not a problem), the problem is the whole unit is loose and buzzes against the roof when the subs hit. I'd to have to pay acura just to tighten some screws, but I seem to be missing something.

I dont know how I missed fsttyms1's post - that was the problem. I took off the clear plastic and the screw was just resting on it.
