Depending on the year of your SPORT you will find the code in one of two places. The 2001 model year seems to be particularly difficult to pinpoint the location of "the box". Hopefully this is conclusive and will help those who are trying to locate the code themselves.
I "think" this is the deciding factor on the location of the module.There are two names for the module that controls the remote/keypad/locks.
Remote Anti-Theft Personality (RAP) Module—Module-Controlled Vehicles Built Before 7/24/2000
This is located in the rear body behind the trim panel, as some here have noted.
Vehicle Security Module—Module-Controlled Vehicles Built After 7/24/2000
This is located in the dash behind the passenger air bag, as others have noted.
So, build date of 7/24/2000 seems to be the split.
