Under the rear bench seat.
Does not look too complicated.
Just have to be extra careful and not damage the fuel level sensor.

I do a lot of my own work (or used to do a lot before my 2 year old daughter was born... now I have no time ), but I would normally leave the fuel related stuff to the mechanic... just didn't want to risk dealing with gasoline and such in my garage, etc.

To me, sometimes spending a couple of hundred dollars to get the job done safely in a mechanic shop is worth it.
