When you're looking at the engine bay, its between the battery and where the front passenger suspension is. There will be a strip of them, on the cover it should be marked as 30A Retraction (below 60A). Once that's removed you can put your lights up with the manual hand cranks under the bumper (that's how you get the sleep-eyed look.)
