Probably on the backside of the engine on the passenger side. I recall that I can barely see that filter on my '96 from the engine compartment, and then only because I learned where to look by crawling under the car.
To actually get at it, you have to raise the front end of the car. Remember that this is a serious safety issue. Don't use just the jack. Ramps are better, if you have access to a set. Or be damned sure that the car is blocked up with some beefy railroad tie pieces. Make sure the car is in gear and that the rear wheels are chocked! We want you coming back here for a long time. We don't want to see you smooshed (highly technical term)
You know, commercial oil change places are pretty cheap. I let them do it for me. I don't feel like dealing with oily messy stuff too much any more! If you live near, and have access to, a military installation, most have auto craft centers that will change oil for you cheap! Like in the $10 range (you bring the oil and the filter)
