the computer is located on the passenger side behind the quarter pannel. you will have to jack the car up and remove the front passenger wheel and when wheel well liner, i dont know if you have to take the fender off or not. also their are alot of fuses and important stuff in the passenger side kick pannel, you may need to do some disconnecting there. I had to run a pipe around it for mt TT install but i didnt have to remove it. good luck
