Thermostat Location 2000 Corolla

[parimento1]

2000 Corolla, one of my friends cars. Has original coolant in it mixed with green and has become gunky. I want to flush it by taking out the t-stat and running water thru it til' its clear. Anybody out there know the t-stat location. Thanks in advance!
