I don't seem to have one in mine. I just checked mine at night with the lights off in the garage.

I have a light in my 2003 C240. I have noticed that it does not come on sometimes. I can't remember when it doesn't come on, but it seems that if certain conditions are met, it doesn't come on. Kind of like the interior lights that don't come on if there is enough ambient light. The light is in the little compartment to the right of the CD player at the top.

just figured it out. you have to have the key in the ignition. the car was dark, key turned to setting 2 and opened the glove box. the light came on. its abover where the extra CD magazine would sit, next to the CD changer.

You're right. I didn't try the key the first time. The lense is kind of obvious now that I know that it is there. I can't believe that I missed it the first time. Thanks.

HITMAN are you serious? its in the door of the glovebox. when you lower the glove box door, look on the backside of it. you cant miss it.
