Where do you keep the owner's manual / book?

I've recently downsized from a larger car to a 991. I usually like to keep the owner's manual (the whole set of manuals in the collection that comes with the 991) in the car. I'm having a hard time finding a place for it to fit.
- Doesn't fit in glove box
- No spot in the passenger footwell (my other car, a Mercedes SUV, has a spot with netting to hold the manual)
- Not ideal to keep it in the front trunk, moving around and taking up luggage space

Where do you keep your owner's manual?

It EASILY fits in the glove box. I also have sunglasses, portable HD, some other crap in there, and there is still space. How huge is your manual? :P Hope it's not a4 format.

Mine fits in the glove box. I even have room for my Walther PPK/S right next to it.

Glove box here. You can also get an App from Porsche called Good to Know. It's a digital copy with videos and fully searchable too. Very useful and easy to navigate. Smaller than the manual too.

Mine has a recessed shelf in the glovebox for the manual, plenty of room.

If you don't mind me asking... Where can we get a PDF copy of the 991 Manual? Did you scan it in yourself?

I keep mine in the glove-box, which incidentally is much larger than the glove-box in my old M3.
