Default Where do you keep your registration?

In Massachusetts, your vehicle Registration is printed on an 8.5" x 11" sheet of paper. I keep this folded up in the case that contains my Owner's Manual. However, some B9 owners have suggested keeping the Owner's Manual in the net in the left-side compartment in the trunk, thus freeing up the left-side glove compartment for other things.

But in the rare event I might get pulled over by a cop, it would be really inconvenient to retrieve my registration from the trunk.

I guess I could just keep my registration loose in either glove compartment, but I'm curious where other Audi owners keep theirs.

My glove box has a clip built in to the door to hold an insurance card and registration, and a pen.

Manual goes in trunk behind net on side.

Wallet and EDC go in manual cubby on dash.

It is a bit redundant at this time and age the paper registration card is still needed to be in the car. The cop can easily scan the plate and have all the vehicle information they need. In CA rear plate has the sticker for month of registration and the sticker for year renewed. Some eastern states have it on the windshield.
In any case, as most others, I have it in a little wallet with the insurance card clipped in the designated spot in the glove box. Come to think about it, the safest place may be on the sun visor; if cop orders someone to present the card, and the person tries to reach the glove box, would that action cause the cop to pull the trigger? Luckily, in the last few decades, I have only been pulled over a couple times for speeding, and never was asked to show the registration card.

I have a small leather bound folder/folio that I use to keep my vehicle registration, proof of insurance, and other items/info together. I keep it and the manual in the manual cubby to the left of the steering wheel. Easily accessible and everything's together this way.

I don't ever leave any information in the car which identifies my home address, like insurance cards (or program my actual home address as "home" in the Nav). In Texas, the windshield sticker is your registration, insurance card stays in the wallet/phone app.
