Question ESP placement?

I have a problem with the placement of the ESP switch on the 2002 C230 K (coupe). I find that when I need to shut it off, I’m in a hurry and it is difficult to find and keep my eyes on the road. I’m thinking it needs to be moved!

Were should I move it too? The steering wheel, the Shifter? Has anyone moved it before?

I'm surprised you, of all people, even consider leaving it on. :p

It’s one of those things when you don’t want it you don’t need it, but if you needed it you would definitely want it…..

We "three" need to go autocrossing next year, we can teach Randy how to drive his awsome car and then he will not have to worry about ESP. Have a Happy and safe holiday......

I hope we don't find you driving on the sidewalk when you lose
control with your ESP switched off. Be careful.
