If you are looking into the engine bay it is near the front left (passenger side) and located on the hard metal a/c line. It is a small circle window.

Fwiw, i've never had been able to match up exactly with what the manual says I should see. I just see some clear fluid in there and a small bubble.

My a/c has always worked fine. Imo the trick is to run the compressor every week or so to circulate the oil in the system
