Where is factory amplifier in '09 TL?

Is the amp in the trunk area or do I have to remove the rear seat to get to this?
I have an 2009 TL tech package with nav

CC. I think it's accessible from the passenger side footwell. But I'm going off memory from a long dead post. I'll look and see if I can find it.

Now I'm not sure if I gave you good advice as I found this quote from january of this year:

You might wanna PM him and see if he ever found it.

According to the factory schematic for the '09 TL, the audio amp (part #14) is located underneath the glove box, on the right side of the front passenger's feet, behind the kick panel .
