Main relay is in the fuse box under the hood I believe. It's the one with the screw on it. If your by the driver side fender. It's on the far end of the fuse box

The main relay is under the driver's side of the dashboard, and starter-cut relay is in the fuse box under the driver's side as well.....at least in my car....
