Cruise Control Location

Just need a picture or a good description of the cruise control unit location in the engine bay. Or if anyone knows off hand where I could look on the FSM. I'm searching right now but it's slow goings.

Forgot to mention this is for an S4 NA model.

It's on the passenger side. Black cylinder that comes to a point at the top. Has a big cable coming off of it.

A picture would be good though. I'm putting it on my car and can't find the damn bracket.

I know what the module looks like, i'm looking for the specific mounting location. Sorry I wasn't more specific in my first post.
Is this it? on 5-2 right behind the carbon filter almost on top of the cold start resivior?

Yep. The bracket that holds the cold start, also holds the cruise unit...at least with the electric cruise unit that is. I'm sure the vac unit is the same.

The bracket may or may not be present from factory if the car didn't come with it. Cruise Actuator is mounted above Cold Start Reservoir for those with one. Follow the cable from the throttle body to it.
