Default Where is the Camshaft Position Sensor?? Help please

Hi, i have trouble with my 00' gt eclipse suddenly it started to stall and the rpm gauge whent crazy i drove to the nearest checker and they run the diagnostic. Two codes appeared:

P0335 Crankshaft Position Sensor A Circuit Malfunction
P0340 Camshaft Position Circuit Malfunction

I want to know where are these sensors or if i only change the camshaft sensor would it be enough for the car to drive normally, i've seen in threads that there are cars that run good after the change and others that dont, please help me, and if someone can give me an ilustrated instruccions or detailed. Thank you.

well your cams are at the top of your engine under the valve cover, so the Cam angle sensor should be on the side of the top of the engine, about the size of your fist. on 2g's its on the passanger side, dono about yours..

The cam positioning sensor is built into the distributor. You will need to replace that entire unit. Im in that same boat.
