From what I gather I have two answers:
One person said its behind the glove box, remove it and it should be visible.
...another said:
The orfice tube for the front unit is located to the right side front of the engine compartment next to the radiator, it is in-line, you will will see 2 metal lines that ajoin with fittings the lower and smaller diameter is the orfice line , in the rear unit, the expansion valve is located in the left rear
quarter panel
