Default Where is the location of the Running Light Relay?

I just bought this Running Light Relay for my 91' ls400. Its taking from a 91' ls400 from us. my car is european but i hope it fits.

I just cant find the plug. I looked almost everywhere in the engine compartment without any luck.

Hopefully i dont have to split the whole car apart. Maybe someone in here know where it is :-)

This is the picture of the relay: http://i.ebayimg.com/24/!BYI,RDwBGk~$(KGrHgoOKkUEjlLmVks,BKf5(s1pyg~~_12.JPG

Thank you.

If you've looked everywhere and can't find it, then it's behind and below the drivers side headlight assembly. There's a set of relays under there but I can't remember which one's they are. You'll need to remove the sidemarker and headlight/foglight assembly on that side to get access to them. If I remember correctly, there's a single phillips head screw that holds the sidemarker on, and then four 10mm bolts that hold in the headlight/foglight assembly. Removal of the correct four bolts will take it out as a single unit. In Germany, is the foglight actually a highbeam, and the fogs are down lower in the bumper?

Pheev i need to remove alt the lights. Hmm damn.. I'm thinking of buying clear headlights so maybe i should just wait until that then. But thanks for the help Jim, and yeah the fogs are down in the bumper. My car is a German Import.

Only takes 2 minutes to get them off. Very easy to do...
