First remove the top plastic engine beauty cover. Then each individual plug is under the coil on each cylinder.

On my 2005 the power steering reservoir is in front of the coolant tank but I think it's more underneath on later models. Anyone confirm?
Here is a pic of the 2005:

Thank you so much Hudini. In my garage now looking at your picture. That is were owners manual also said it is. BUT looking now I found it under headlight box in your picture, in a box in frame. will need to pull headlight to service. Now for the plugs older models had a rectangle cover over them to gain access. this cover appears to be part of the manifold ram tubes. Although it looks to be a two piece cover upper and lower . No screws holding together. May just pop apart for plug access. will take picture need Granddauther to upload though. TY
