I'm having the same issue. I don't think you can lock the glove box! IMHO this was a major oversight or cost savings measure this is ridiculous. How do we secure driving docs (registration, insurance ID, etc) the we valet park the car? Major door MB!

What does the valet parking guy do with your registration documents or insurance ID? For us those actual documents have no value. This information can be checked on-line, paper copies are useless in wrong hands.
We hardly use valet parking in Europe, another reason to miss something that is seen important elsewhere.

Paper documents are old school, perhaps the German manufacturer did not think those are important in the US.

No lock. Neither any of my 4 other benzes.
I have never used a "valet" either other than for a rental.. I've never understood the idea to hand off any car I own, particularly one costing north of 100k, to a total stranger.
