Default How do I remove the ECM?

I mean how exactly do I get to it, how do I take it off and what do I use to take it off. I cant seem to get the breadbox off. THe Screwes face a panel so I cant get to them.

Oh no. On my car you take the plastic panel off from under the right side dash, the one that has the little courtesy light in it. To get it off there are a couple screws holding it up if I remember right. Unplug the light once you get the panel lowered down. Then, look up. You gotta lay on your back with your head down where the passenger's feet would be. There you will see the ecm. There should be a couple bolts or nuts holding it up there. I think they are about 12 mm size. Take them out and carefully slide the ecm down. Good luck.
