Is the part in question #18? Something about the description for part #14 on that diagram makes me think that if you have air conditioning, you won't have the cubby/pocket. Mallard, does your car have air conditioning? I notice that you've got one switch where I have 2 (one that chooses to recirculate the air inside the car or to use outside air, and another that turns on the air conditioner). Then again.... I just noticed that JeroenB3's car has the same switches that mine does, so maybe I'm way off with the A/C vs. storage bin theory. It wouldn't surprise me if it's a US safety issue that requires some sort of knee protection under there. I don't recall what's under there on the passenger side, but isn't there some sort of "chunk of stuff" on the driver's side? __________________ Real men know how to SEARCH!

Maybe in America it is filled with foam, as protection? You need this picture, number 17: __________________ S50B32, manual 6-speed, LSD, Z3 M rear axle, ///M sport package, 17" LTW's, Eibach Pro-Kit | | | 08-10-2007, 12:52 PM | #43 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2006 Location: dorchester Posts: 700 | Mallard i wouldnt worry so much about ur glove box lid not being straight... uv got bigger issues.... Some buggers moved ur steering wheel to the wrong side of ur car!!! As for protecton I cant see that being the issue..If anything I would have thought euro laws were stricter then US safety laws?? And like its already been said its not linked to AC..all euro cars have it fitted U dont have an option of it not being there! Still waiting for an US pic though..come on guys!! | | | 09-12-2007, 12:19 PM | #44 | Member Join Date: Mar 2007 Location: Netherlands Posts: 93 | Hey Guy's, Where are the pictures of the US Glovebox compartment??
