If you're looking for the connector to read the ECU with a Lexia (or similar) then this is in the glovebox, with the fuses, behind a small panel.

All the ECU's can be read from here. I can think of at least 22 ECU's off hand on a 2005 C5 (depending on what spec the car is).

The little diagnostic plug your meaning?

If anyone else is wanting to know, its in the glovebox behind the fuse box cover. Pull off the peice of trim with the little pocket attached and its just behind there.
