Default Crash sensor location?

Can someone please tell me/draw diagram/show photos of where the crash sensor should be attached under the hood? Mine has broken off from where it was attached and is dangling behind the nose. looks like it could be crazy glued back if I knew where.

Many thanks!

the sensor is mounted underneath the fender on the tip of the upper frame rail.

Hello, thank you for the reply. Can you be a bit more specific? (Which fender, what is upper frame rail, etc.)

Sits about level with the air filter box, but tucked under the front passenger fender up against the frame rail.

Thanks RyanV. i'm guessing this will involve removing the fender or going through the wheel well to get at?
