Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

What is the pocket below dash....just above your knees on the drivers side? Is is for owners manual or something? I would like to remove mine, it is not in the way, but has no use to me. Cannot figure it out.
It is for the owner's manual, as their is no glovebox in earlier models. I have a 2000 and have the same "pocket". I don't know if it was discontinued with the MY '02 upgrades. You can search for posts here where a lot of people just pull it off. It doesn't sound difficult. Others have used it as a holster, so you can keep it and be creative if you like.
Part 2:
Does anyone know what to search under to find out how to remove? I have tried to remove and it looks like it is secured from the other side of the dash?
IT HAS PUSH CLIPSTO HOLD IT IN, ITS NOT FOR THE OWNERS MANUAL, PUTTING THE FULL OWNERE MANUAL EVENTUALY IT WILL FALL OUT OF THE DASH FROM THE WEIGHT
PORSCHE CALLS IS A MAP HOLDER .
I do want to pull mine out too... will that leave 2 holes!?
Is it easy to pull off?? Any tips?
(btw, I followed the comments from you guys... I successfully pulled off the sides of my lower center console, and taped a whole bunch of "felt tape" inside to stop some annoying rattlings!)
So here's a really lame question: Are they thinking you'd take the maual out of the case it comes in and put it into that pocket? Cuz the entire case won't fit, that's for sure. Sorry, I know this isn't one of the world's bigger problems, but just learning this Porsche stuff.
I can't beleive all of this riff-raff comes from just one simple question about this strange pocket under the dash. You guys just have too much fun whipping crap on each other. It's all good. By the way it can be removed if you have the right wrench.....who wants to put their manual in there anyway?

I have had my manuals in the pocket under the steering wheel since I bought the P...it is a tight fit,,but it fits and it doesn't feel like it is going to fall down anytime soon.
I got under there with a flashlight and it looks like a rounded head. Does not look like any tool can be used to remove. As stated by VOVE, if you just rip it out, can it be put back in for the next owner?
It is a euro size map holder. Some people put their manuals in it. A hat. Their lunch. Whatever.
Somewhere in all the Porsche publications I have there is a warning not to put heavy stuff in there.
It is held in place with 2 plastic rivets. You push out the pin in the middle of the rivet. Some people are just able to just yank it out.
It went away when the glove box came out.
Boxster got the glove box in 2003. Thought the 996 go it in 2002. So you would not have the map holder.
My 1997 Boxster does not have one, as it started in 1998.
Mine fits in with the manual and warranty book...I had to take some of the other crap out of it in order to make room for my registration and insurance info stuff...

riad,
I can't believe you beat me to the punch on that comment! By the looks of your avatar, it seems like that's where you keep your unpaid speeding tickets.
