Where are MAZ3 t-harness plugs located in 2018 Mazda3?

I'm installing an EVO-ONE with THAR-ONE-MAZ3 in a 2018 Mazda 3 Grand Touring Automatic w/ Push-to-start.  Following the guide linked from the compatibility page (evo-one_ig_thr_bi_maz3-3-6-cx5_pts_2014-2017_1key_a_68261.pdf) states that the 32- and 24-pin connectors are located under the steering column.  Having removed the top & bottom panels, there's nothing in there that matches either of the connectors.  There are a few small plugs, but nothing as large as 24 or 32 pins.

There's a match for the 24-pin connector in the fuse panel near the driver's door, but I can't find a match for the 32-pin.  Any idea where the plugs are hiding on the '18?

The connectors are located at the start/stop ecu. I believe its a little further down the steering column.

Found them!  Also found out it's much easier to find them when you extend the steering wheel all the way OUT, which I didn't even know it could do.  Learn something every day...  Installed successfully!  Thanks!
