Apologies for the newbie question...I haven't changed coolant myself before. As title says, the shop manual says what it its but not where or a picture. I looked at the bottom of the radiator for something with a **** or nut that I could turn and didn't see anything obvious.
Can someone post a pic of this rad. drain plug? Is it on the pass or driver's side? Very bottom of the rad?

Its on the pass side, just below the upper radiator hose connection on the radiator. It may take a 1/4 in drive to turn it or it may need only your fingers. Turn it only about 1/4 way (cc I think) then you can pull it out (may need pliers) as it has a metal pin that locks it in place. The fluid will drain out through the bottom hole. Good luck
Another way if you just want to change out coolant is to just take off the hose at the thermostat. It will dump out a lot of coolant real quick. Then just slip hose back on. You can just stand and do it from top and your done in a minute. With motor cold of course. Don't get burned!
