Where is the PSE / Central Vacuum Pump?

The pump is bad in my 2000 E320. I need to know where the pump is located so I can replace it.
Any ideas to the location and how to access it?

pop the rear seat bottom. on pax side, rearwards of the battery, may be
some foam and covering. lift to expose PSE with all the yellow air hoses
protruding from it.
