    it's above the right kick panel speaker, you need to take that panel out to get the computer out, you may be able to leave the glovebox in but you can pull it out of the way in a minute or less
    all america wants is cold beer warm cat and a place to take a poop with a door on it

    I know this is true for 535 models. I think Bentley manual provided various locations for various engine applications...
