It's under the center console. The easiest way to access the adjustment screw is to remove it. It's only held in by 4 screws, if memory serves correctly.

It's just the center console - you don't even have to play with the middle console where your cup holders are. you only have to remove the part of the console that wraps around your parking brake and shifter. Literally 4 screws and it'll slide right off. I can have one out, adjusted, and back in in under 10 minutes.
