Default Temperature Sensor replacement

I have the temperature sensor that ECS says it is located on the evaporator housing beneath the cabin filter. Any help in how to get to it? Or even where it is? Seems like I've heard you can attack from the top or the bottom, but I could use some advice from somebody who has been through this. TIA

I went from the top and cut a notch out of the housing. There are videos. You have to remove the passenger side rain tray and housing. Best to look on YouTube.

I searched Youtube and only found one where it looks like the guy went through hell to get the old one out, that was enough to dampen my spirits. How would you suggest I start my search?

This one looks good. I cut a notch to get the sensor out. Didn’t want to deal with it.

Quickly replace the G89 Outside Air Temperature Sensor in your Audi B5 S4/A4.
