In the drivers side foot well up under the dash to the left a little bit. Not to bad to get to. It took me about 10 minutes to remove and replace when I changed my flasher relay to a tap turn. Thats a total PITA to change out.

Thanks Muff! Do you need to get the same year for your car or 98-05 work on all the same?

All years are compatible with each other. The only sport ECUs are in the Sport Design and L-Tuned and the 430 had the normal ECU from my understanding. Also see the bottom of this thread. Sakataj uploaded the install guides from the L-Tuned steering ECU.
