The connections to the tops of the struts are under the pop-off covers on the rear package tray (the flat area under the inside of the rear window). Use something smooth and flat to pry the covers up and off.

Thank you for the reply. I was looking for were the plastic air line is routed after it leaves the distribution block towards the rear struts. Mine has a leak some were close under the right side fuse block. I can here hissing sound when the air pump is running but can't find the plastic air line. Any help would be appreciated

Does one side of the rear sag? If so, you might try to hook air pressure to the air line at that rear strut, then listen for the hissing as you search for the break in the line.
If you find a break, you might consider installing a line connector at the break, rather than struggling to replace the entire line.
