it's a royal pain to get to it... under the intake manifold right by the starter and has wires near it for the immobilizer and ignition so be careful not to move/tug/pull on those wires (heat can make those connectors/wires brittle).

sorry for the repeated posts but rockauto shows the part# can be cross referenced to toyota parts catalog too so you might be able to save a few if you buy from Toyota instead of Lexus... because you know, that fancy L badge is just a glorified Toyota.
