Default Turn Signal relay ???

So my turn signals have been slowing down a good bit over the past couple months so I finally went to Advanced Auto and bought a new turn signal relay switch. Now the problem is finding where the old one is located. I have taken both plastic panels off from under the steering wheel and looked through completely and seen nothing. Can anyone help me out here? Has anyone else had this problem and had to replace one?

It is getting annoying. Has anyone else had this problem and does anyone know where the relay switch is located?

it is that simple...when you remove the knee panel, it will be tucked in the lip of the panel near the radio/climate controls...that's the only location of the turn signal relay

I stand corrected. I had seen that small metal clip sitting on the lip of the plastic housing around the radio and climate controls before and thought nothing of it. I unclipped it last night and was relieved that the relay was on the other side. Thanks for all the help.
