Best Place to Store Owner's Manual?
In my wife's car, as in most older cars, the owner's manual fits in the glove box. In B6 and B7 Audis, it fits under the steering column in a special place (which was cool because it left the glove box open). But in the C63, there are no obvious places within reach. Am I missing something. Are the any good places other than the front door pockets or in the trunk? Thanks.

how big is your C63 that the glove box is not within reach ? or another question is how much stuff is in the glove box that you can't put it in there ?
this is one of the weirdest threads I've read in a while.....lol

I do like to have it in the car, but I know what you are saying. For example, right now I would like to know how to make the passenger mirror go down when I put it in reverse (and the usual of setting the selector to one side or the other does not appear to work).

Bad design from MB, my owners manual doesn't fit in my glove box either.
I put it in the net, but sometimes my passenger kicks it making it dirty.

I just put the zip pack that holds the documents and manuals on the floor behind the driver's seat; it's not like much people sit back there anyways.

Unless you possess shrink-ray technology, there is no way that the owner's manual (i.e., that entire leather case packed full of books that MB gives you) is fitting in the glove box.
What's your next car going to be?

Your car may be gone and not forgotten, but your memory regarding the glove compartment size is definitely forgotten.

2009, it fit fine in top of glove box. If is does not fit, you must be putting all the extra BS paper your received in the case too.

I was actually trying to be friendly.
I think that there is a mix-up going on here. I think some folks are talking about just the manual itself, whereas others are talking about a relatively large leather case stuffed full of all kinds of books, including the manual.
All I know is that my collection of books, manuals, etc. whilst inside the case, will not fit in the glove box. I'll provide photographic documentation if need be.
I asked you what your next car was going to be but you were in such an uncontrollable excitement to point out those other posts that you must've missed it.
