Transmission solenoids: where are they?

I've got a 2003 TL-S which needs a little TLC/divine intervention on the tranny. While I'm waiting for the pressure switches to come in, I thought I'd have a go at cleaning the shift solenoids, as that seems to be a frequently mentioned maintenance item.

Trouble is, I have no idea where to find them or how many there are. Threads refer to the DIY's, but I haven't found one with suitable pictures, diagrams, or instructions.

Can anyone tell me (or show me) how many there are, where they are, how to get to them, and what do to with them after they're out??

Thanks.

iirc there are 4 Single solenoids you must clean + The Pressure Control Solenoid oil screen:

Thanks for the info.

Does anyone know how much (if any) fluid might leak out when these solenoids are pulled?
