Default 2006 Lexus IS250 Coolant Temperature Sensor Location????

Throwing a code and coolant sensor (ECT) I believe is the culprit. Want to replace the sensor but having trouble finding it. Any help or pictures would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Thanks mike. Anyone know if you change it from the top or bottom of the car? So tight around the engine.

I got asked that question awhile back. I couldn't say much on that. You'll definitely need a deep socket to remove. If from up top I must say remove the intake pipe, and throttle body. Maybe you can feel where it's at from there. Next time my car is on ramps I'll check from underneath.
