A storage system includes an elongated, generally rectangular housing which has a forward-facing surface in the vehicle defining the rear seat backs of a vehicle and which has an open opposite end for extending into the trunk of a vehicle. The housing is slidably mounted to move from a retracted position substantially within the vehicle trunk in which the forward-facing surface defines the rear seat back rests of the rear passenger area of a vehicle and an extended position in which the generally rectangular housing is moved forwardly to expand the available storage space within the trunk. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the generally rectangular storage housing includes at least one pivoted access door such that access can be obtained to the rectangular storage housing from within the rear seat passenger area of the vehicle. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the access means includes a pivoted top lid. In another preferred embodiment of the invention, the storage system further includes a pivoted forward-facing door to provide direct access to the trunk regardless of the position of the storage housing.

A visor includes an elbow bracket assembly for attaching the visor to a vehicle. The elbow bracket assembly has a bezel with a flange extending from an edge thereof in spaced relationship to the vehicle roof for receiving an object to be held between the flange and the vehicle roof. In another embodiment of the invention, a visor body includes an elbow bracket assembly at one end and an auxiliary visor clip mounted to an edge of the visor at an end remote from said assembly. The auxiliary visor clip includes a bezel having a flange extending therefrom in spaced relationship to the visor body for receiving planar objects under said flange and held between the flange and visor body. In yet another embodiment of the invention, a visor includes both a storage clip under the elbow bracket assembly bezel and an auxiliary visor clip bezel. In yet another embodiment of the invention the bezel associated with one or more of the visor mounting brackets may include a longitudinally extending semicircular resilient socket for receiving cylindrical objects such as pencils therein. In a further embodiment of the invention, the visor may also integrally or separately include a generally U-shaped storage clip extending over an edge of the visor with an outwardly extending flange for receiving objects thereunder.
