It is mounted vertically to the extreme left rear side (looking form the rear of the car) of the engine compartment. Usually I think there are 3 or 4 bolts that pierce through the glassfibreof the clams boot. Note that one of these has an important earth cable that needs to be grounded well if you take the bolts out.
