Default Oil Pressure switch location on 2008 4 cylinder Accord?

Can anyone post some good pictures of where the oil pressure switch is located on the 2.4L 4 cylinder in the 2008 Accord?

The oil pressure switch is #16 in the picture. Look like its at the pulley-end of the engine, back towards the firewall.

ok thanks. I found it I think, but any clue on the best way to get to it? I’ve read that jacking the car up and going at it from underneath or pulling the front wheel/tire off and taking the plastic wheel well off to get it. Any exact help would be appreciated

I never had to do that, but it's near the oil filter...
I used to have a 2003. I got the oil filter through the wheel well, and also from the top. Personally I found it easier from the top even though there was barely enough room for the filter. Since that sensor is a lot smaller than the filter I'd probably go for the top first.

Thanks for your input. I ended up going from the top and bottom to get it in and out.
