Radiator Fan Switch is location

Does anyone know where the Radiator Fan Switch is located in the Si FA5? I can't seem to find it or I found it and didn't think it was the right thing.

Well I bought the Mugen Fan Switch for the 05 Si and I think we are running a sensor in our cars now which is a little different. I have attempted to get the switch to fit the connector but I was not able to (I didn't try really hard either). But I was not able to get it to fit so I didn't bother taking a the fluid out and seeing if it would thread in but I think if that can happen I will buy the connector and rewire the switch for the connector. I saw the Buddy Club one and I think spoon has one too but I have not tried either of them. If you buy one let me know if it fits I might just buy one.

Thanks

well that is kinda why I created this thread back in the day was to help me figure out what to get and see if it would fit or not and the location of where it was on the car which I figured that out but now I need to know if the Mugen will work to kick on the fan and make the car run cooler or not.

i got the jvtr radiator and it seems to keep the car a little cooler. Back in the day i hit a raccoon doing 70mph and killed my radiator. So if i had to replace it might as well upgrade. Btw that one is wayyyy cheaper then what honda tried to sell me.
