How do I use a MouseListener to act when an imageIcon is pressed (NOT Jb)?

Question

I want to make an image a button (NOT a JButton), as the image says something like "Click me for help".
How do I take advantage of the MouseListener class/methods so that I can perform an action when the image is clicked?
I'm sure there's a way to find out the pixel coordinates when mouse1 is clicked and I could do it from there, any idea's upon getting the coordinates?
Any source of direction is appreciated.

So, if anyone could figure that one out I would be more then happy to give 2 additional duke stars to you. Now, as I mentioned before there must be a way to use e.getSource() when mouse1 and store the coordinates so then I just simply use an if statement to check if that part of the image has been pressed. The only problem, how do I get the coordinates of mouse1 when pressed?
Oh how I enjoy complicating things. :)

Not sure if this is what you are looking for...
        someComponentThatDisplaysYourImage.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter()
            public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e)
                System.out.println(e.getX()); //pixels relative to left of the component
                System.out.println(e.getY()); //pixels relative to top of the component
        });
