RHD (UK): behind the large clip-on lower dash panel directly under the steering column, the panel that also carries the switch bank to the right of the wheel (towards the driver's door). The 16-pin socket sits in a bracket at the bottom of the dash behind that panel and is not visible until the panel is off. LHD: same panel under the steering column, socket behind it. Same position on all Phase 1 trims (Feel, Flair, Flair Plus and later trims). It is not in the glovebox fuse box and not under the centre armrest.
Large one-piece clip-on panel under the steering column. Start at one end, pull straight towards you until the first clips release, then work along the panel keeping it flat. Clips are tight and break easily on older cars, so a wide plastic trim tool helps. There is very little clearance between the socket and the panel, so you cannot leave a dongle plugged in with the panel refitted.
