IDM - how to locate / replace

I've had a few questions about the IDM in the past. Now I have one on order to try and resolve my problem.

Has anyone here recently replaced one (drivers side, inside the fender) that can tell me the steps to take.

Does anyone have any drawings / diagrams from a repair manual that shows it? My repair manual doesn't even mention the IDM or anything about removing the inner-fender.

Thanks a bunch.

FYI....bought the IDM from an Ebayer called ACE (Auto Computer Exchange). Talked to them...seem like real nice folks to deal with and even said they would try my IDM at their place first if I didn't want to purchase one. The shop I just gave $1,000 to didn't even offer that.

Thanks...that certainly helps. I've heard it is a huge PITA and I've heard less then 15 minute job. That PDF doesn't look too complicate but we'll see. Thanks for the input.
