Right above the hood release lever, one bolt holds it to the frame.

Yeah... you are right.
Google isn't very obvious for showing where it is in relation to the rest of the car.

Those yellow arrows and writing in the first and third pictures that Google pulls are are really deceiving.

Alright it was one question no need to be a dick. And is the main relay the same for all I found a dual port fuel injected model at the junk yard so I'm wondering if I can pull the relay from that

Comments like this one should not gain a post count increase +1. People sometimes look at a person's post count to determine their level of Valuable Contributions.

To the original poster, I think you can find a Factory Service Manual at:
http://hondatech.info/downloads/Auto/Manuals/Civic/. Just browse to find your car. MUCH valuable info, pictures, and troubleshooting techniques are included in the FSM. It will always be the best resource to check first.

Yes, it is the same. Several other Hondas and Acuras use the same relay as well. Pick up a spare, I keep one in my glovebox just in case.

When you do a MPFI coversion you do not have to change the relay, it's the same one.
