Welcome to DF
Two refrigerant system service ports are used to recover/recycle/evacuate/charge and test the A/C refrigerant system. Unique sizes are used on the service ports for the R-134a refrigerant system to ensure the system is not accidentally contaminated with R-12 refrigerant or service equipment used for R-12 refrigerant.

The high side service port is located on the A/C liquid line near the front of the right front wheel well. The low side service port is located on the A/C suction line near the A/C expansion valve at the dash panel. Both the high side and low side A/C service port valve cores are serviceable.

Each of the service ports has a threaded plastic protective cap installed over it from the factory. After servicing the refrigerant system, always reinstall both of the service port caps.

Do you have to remove any components to access it?

I looked and I can't seem to find it.
