Default Help Finding Electrical Connection

Does anyone who has installed the underhood lamp kit have a photo - or directions that I could follow - showing just where the underhood lamp harness connects/plugs into the forward lamp harness? I have been under the hood with a flashlight for an hour looking for this plug-in. According to the directions, you simply remove the connector plug from the main harness and plug the thing in, If YOU CAN FIND THE DANG THING!! I've looked in my service manual and it is vague and of no help whatsoever. My car is a '08 coupe. Thanks for the help.

I believe the connector is on the left side of the radiator about half way down. I think its the only one there.

Depending on which direction you're looking. The plug is on the passenger side of the radiator. If you look down that space inbetween the radiator and the passenger side frame rail it's about 1/3rd to 1/2 way down and should be in a clip. It'll have a plug in it that has little rubber **** sticking out pointing up.

Great, thanks - I saw that and thought that it was probably the outside temperature sensor so I was reluctant to mess with it. Really appreciate the help.
