Ambient temperature sensor location...

Anyone know where the outside temperature sensor is located, exactly? After my AMG bumper conversion, the temperature reading is all whacky. This has happened in the past and the dealer told me the sensor came loose. I'd like to fix this myself if I can.

Anyone know the exact location?

Thanks.

I guess I'm looking for a 'How-to' as well.

Mine did the exact same thing after I changed my bumper to the AMG too. It still reads inaccurately.
