under the hood, and yes, that's how the TL's are. It's in the manual how to flip them up. Turn the car off when the wipers are half way.

Do you mean windshield wipers?

The one on the passenger side is under the HOOD right?

To get that to flip up, turn on the wipers and then turn off your car when the wipers are up (kinda like how the ricers do it).

Once the are up, you should be able to flip it open to get under it.
