I had been keeping my garage door opener where it seems most of you keep yours, the little square hole near the cup holder. But, at night, it was hard to find and with no light at that time, it was hard to use. So, I moved mine up to the 2.5"X4" hole to the right of the GPS screen. I used one of my wife's unused pot holders, and just clipped the opener on it and stuffed it into the hole. It is a perfect location, out of the way, and easy to find and reach. The problem is, it's temporary. I need something more permanent. Something that fits the decor a little better. Maybe a 3d printer can print a soft plastic hinged device that not only will fit, but looks good. Maybe utilize the space behind the opener for a coin holder or plackers or something small. I'll be the first customer for a permanent solution. I would like to send a pic of what mine looks like, but I am not good at posting a pic except on certain chat groups.
Built into my mirror. My Mav was used (666 miles) and had the mirror with Homelink installed.

That's where I kept mine in my old truck. The spring did a bit of damage to the visor. I did put a pad between the spring and visor at a later time, but the damage had already been done by then. Thanks for the post.
count me in the g. door opener on the visor club. mine is on the driverside one.

At the bottom of my grid cubby is a small panel that can be used to mount a switch. I attached my garage door opener to that flat panel with double sided 3M tape.

After 1 year and 7 months I have finally begun to stop looking for my "keys" to the truck. I however refuse to place my garage door opener any place other than the driver side visor!

I have a smaller "clicker" because I live in an apartment. It's lived in the cubby, but I think I'm going to use some Velcro sticky tape and mount it somewhere...maybe on the side of the center console between it and the driver seat.

I put mine in the easiest place to click it - on the sun visor. Most of them have a clip for putting it there

Mine too but with the opener on top of the visor a little more out of sight
