Where is the idle speed control unit on an 83 380SL

Can someone tell me where the electronic control circuit board for the idle speed control is on an 83 380 SL?

I have two views in a MB manual that purport to show the location of the Idle controller in a 107; it is forward of the center console under the double vacuum pods that control the outside air flap. Two boxes are shown just below the vacuum pods, the left one is the Idle controller, the right one is the A/C compressor control. The confusion for me arises from another view which shows the fuel pump relay in the location of the Idle control!!

As another (frequent) poster to this forum would say, "Suck it and see".
Translation from the Eastern version of the English language:
You won't know what it is until you try it.
