This is a pretty good link as far as showing what it looks like and where it is located. I got mine out pretty easily. With a 10mm socket and like 5 extensions put together end to end. The closer bolt was easy, the 2nd I had clearance issues with a bolt on the thermostat and my socket wrench, so I removed that thermostat bolt first. Then I could get the 2nd 10mm bolt off the speed sensor. Then I lifted it up and took the pin out from the bottom. (MAKE SURE YOU DON'T DROP IT)
Then with the pin safely out, I worked on the plug, which was the most difficult part. As there is very little room to maneuver your hands down there. My intake was already off when I did this, so that might help with some space as well. All in all it took about 15mins.

If you are still having trouble locating it:

If you can picture that red circle as hovering over the sensor...it is way down there. About 2 feet, on the back of the tranny.
I'm still looking online for a picture taken from the correct angle, so that you can see it...but I haven't been sucessful in finding one yet.
