Default Removing F55 Computer Module

I know someone recently posted some info on this but I can't seem to find it.

I am removing the F55 module to sell along with my F55 shocks. Could someone please tell me again where it is, how to remove it and
what needs to be done with the left over wiring. TechII will be available if necessary.

Thanks

What are you going to do with your suspension setup after you take off the shocks and turn off the F55?

What is needed to replace the F45 controller with the F55 controller? Are they interchangeable, or is a cable adapter required? According to Fichtner, GM is supplying an "interface module" for their kit. Any idea what this is?
