electronic brake controller plug

bought an electronic brake controller yesterday that plugs directly into a plug located under the dash. problem is, i cant find this plug on my 03' F-250. any suggestions on where this is. the diagram that came with the controller shows that it is located under the dash on the right side of the steering column.

thanks guys. i did end up finding it, but then noticed that the e-brake that i bought was for a 2005 and not a 2003. the e-brake has blades in the plug whereas the controller plug in the truck has the torpedo style connectors, so now i have to return it and see if they have the right year model.

I bought my brake controler without a plug on the truck side of the wires and went to my local dealer for a wire plug that usally comes with the truck when you buy it brand new for putting a brake controler box in the truck.I asked how much one was and he went back brought one out and handed it to me and said have a nice day.FREEBIE those are always good to get.
