Where do you store your golf umbrellas in the car?

I keep a small umbrella in the door compartment in the car and would like to keep a larger golf umbrella in the car as well but I'm having a hard time figuring out where to keep it. There is a nice little notch carved for it in the area behind the rear seats but it seems if I put my golf umbrella there it would interfere with the operation of the retractable sunshade. Can I leave the umbrella there and still operate the sunshade or is there some other place I have not thought of?

I keep mine in the trunk along the rear floorboard. It fits nicely, almost like it belongs there.

Thanks. That's what I thought... Would have been nice if I could have kept it inside the car so I can access it without getting wet but just wanted to make sure i am not missing something obvious. I didn't want it rolling around in the trunk but maybe I can "attach" it to the two loops at the top of the trunk area.

During breakfast last Saturday, I mentioned to my wife that I was going to play a couple of rounds instead of working on the honey-do list, which she had compiled a few weeks earlier.
She suggested a good place that I could put my clubs (and umbrella), . . .I can have her give you a call if you wish, . . .I'm sure she would be happy to relay this information to you too!!

Yes but do you have the power sunshade option? I do and the dip is where there power sunshade comes out of so it seems if I put an umbrella there it will interfere with the operation of the power sunshade. As best as I can figure this out, if you have the power sunshade option you are stuck having to keep a full size umbrella in the trunk and possible getting wet retrieving it for use...
