It is located on the left side frame rail above the muffler. There a 3 lines that require a release tool to seperate, a ground wire & 2 bolts. It is stuffed up on the frame rail. You can replace it using jack stands to get the car in the air. You will have a long reach though. If you have access to a lift it we be much easier.

If it is a late production 2003 it will have the upgraded fuel system on it and will not have a filter on it that you can change (filter is in the tank).
