It plugs in next to the lighter and there should be another one one the other side. One of those plugs is for the back up sensor switch, don't know about the other one.

it just pops right out pretty easily. just open the ash tray then pull on the bottom and work your way up going side to side. it has little pins that push into holes in the dash all the way up the sides of the bezel
