Where is the Air Bag Control Unit located
I had a faulty air bag control unit that needs to be replaced. I believe it is located forward of the center console. Before digging too deep, I wanted to know if any of the X5world members knew the location of the ABCU and a recommended path to r / r.

I have not dug it out on an X5 yet but they are usually behind the glove gox. They are also bright ORANGE (usually).
