Were is the Ambient temp. sensor located on Grand Prix?

My rearview mirror says OC on it and sometimes it shows an outside temp,but it is way off. I am going to replace the sensor, I heard it is behind the grill, if so what to I have to take a part to get to the sensor. How much is the temp. sensor and who carries it?
Thank you
Scott

The sensor is located between the area of the front bumper and radiator. Easier to see from underneath looking up. On '99 and up models there may be a plastic shield in the way and may need removal to get to it. You'll see the wiring harness leading up to it and the electrical connector. Cost varies but around $15 and less.
