      .

      ECU is behind the glove box, harness is easiest with engine out so you can get under the battery tray...slow and painfull job if done right.

          behind glovebox is your clue - regardless of LHD or RHD...

          Take your time studying connectors at ECU for correct removal - they only come out sweet if you treat them right - there are four connectors - each with their locating clip - all different sizes so you can't cross them.

            yup was mounted on the airduct behind the glove box, the wiring goes through bulkhead in same place as rhd which made it difficult because the pedals and transmission tunnel but not too bad

            however there was two connectors and sockets, not four, both came out easy enough. disconnecting from the fuse box pulling it all through the bulkhead took some time especially as some one had already been playing about with the wiring
