Where is the engine block heater?

Can anyone tell me where to find the power cord to the engine block heater? The owners manual tells me it's behind the right- hand side headlight. There is so much "stuff" behind the headlight I'll be darned if I can find the cord. Any ideas.

Thanks

Assuming you have the heater installed. Found mine the other day. With the hood up, passenger side between the headlight and the rad. There's a protector covering the three prong plug.

The FAQ needs to be updated. Unless I am mistaken, all of the 2003s have the block heater with the cord installed. All of the 2004s have the block heater installed but do not come with the cord unless you order the block heater option.

From Synchiropus's signature he has an 03. The cord will be located as drsmart stated. Just to help, it will be at the top of the radiator. I removed mine from the harness and rerouted it out the bumper so that you do not have to open the hood to plug in.
