where is the thermostat located on a 2006 Scion xA. I am flushing the coolant. Thought it would make sense to change the thermostat at the same time. 50k miles. Thank you.

Thanks - used to standard American cars where they are usually right up front on top. It is so tight under the hood you really can not see it until you know it is there. I never expected to be at that end of the system.
