I'm having the intermittent headlight issue that so many others have had.
I want to order a relay and have someone fix for me...
Or send it to the guy who fixes them here. (Have to check that thread again).
Appreciate the feedback.

Matt,
Lying on your back looking up at the underside of your dash, it will be to the left of the steering column.
You may have a trim panel that you'll need to remove first, then two or three screws (10mm heads?) that secure the LCM to its bracket. It's a tight fit, but you can wiggle and slide the LCM toward and then back from the steering column. The wiring harness is on the front (firewall) side of the LCM, so twist it until you can access it to release the locking clip and then slide the unit out. Like I said, it's a tight fit, but it'll come out after wiggling/sliding it.
My biggest issue with removal is that I'm so :argue: big that I need to pull the driver's seat to get under the dash. For an average to small guy it's not too tough to reach.

two screws (8mm heads?) that secure the LCM to its bracket. It's a tight fit, but you can wiggle and slide the LCM toward and then back from the steering column. The wiring harness is on the front (firewall) side of the LCM, so twist it until you can access it to release the locking clips on the 3 connectors and then slide the unit out.

Mine was on the right side of column sitting in car ..... And i have one extra $$$$
A tip. If you have the adjustable pedal thingy unbolt it first and the LCM comes out and in a lot easier.
