If replacing on the passenger side, remove the plastic kick panel in the right footwell. To do this, pull up hte plastic sill cover, tehn pull away the flexible plastic gasket, trim or whatever you want to call it that covers the pinch welded seam up along teh dorr opening. You will then probably see a small metal clip or two holding the front edge of the plastic kick panel to body door opening. Pry this off and the panel should come out easily. Now you will have to remove the engine computer unit there, and probably a felt paper cover. You can then see the three hinge bolts.

The driver's side is almost identical except that you will have to remove teh fuse box. It is held in place by two philip head screws, top and bottom of the plastic fuse box. Of course, whenever working aorund electrical circuits, be sure to disconnect the negative battery terminal.

Good luck, it's not the hard, and pretty straightforward when look in there.
