Provided you have kept your luggage with you on the transit to the main terminal head to the lifts on your left and go down to the 1st floor (says car rental on the sign in the left) on exiting the lift turn left and keep walking - the DME is at the end of the building and it well signed

If you can't manage you luggage on the transit you will need to go to the baggage reclaim belt in the main terminal first. If you are on VA then you need to head right and down to the first floor before coming back up to the 3rd floor to cross to the other side to get down to DME.

It's pretty easy to find. After you've cleared immigration, customs and caught the monorail over to the main terminal building, look for the giant green letter B. Head for that and catch the lift down to level 1. When you come out of the lift follow the signs for bus transportation (I believe you turn left out of the lift). It's quite a walk to the MDE desk, but you'll start to see signs for it. When you get there check-in and they'll direct you to your coach.

This only applies if you take your cases with you up the escalator to get on the monorail after clearing immigration and customs. If you can't manage your bags then you have to use the 2nd bag drop and pick your bags up again. This can take a while and if it's raining they won't transport any bags until it stops so I've read of people waiting for up to 2 hours. So, if you can manage your bags on the escalator, then it's best to do so. If you do the bag drop then you will have to go to level 2 on the A side to collect them again, then back up to level 3, over to the B side and down to level 1. The main terminal building is basically an A shape and you arrive at the top of it (level 3) when you get off the monorail. You can only cross from side A to B on level 3, hence the need to go back up again if you've had to pick your bags up from level 2 A side as the Magical Express is on level 1 B side.

This is a photo of level 3 of the main terminal building and the giant letter B
