Here's a link to my install - there's a pic of the connectors showing how they come out from around the right side of my fuse box.

There are 2 connectors, looks like both should plug into 1 connector on the cable to the rear. HTH

You found the 4 pin connector, probably right next to the fuse box. I found my 3 pin connector under the carpet closer to the pass seat. It was hidden under carpet and padding.
