See if this works, it's for the Sedona but may help you. Put it up on ramps. Remove the bottom mud flap. It's rubber and is held in place with six 10 mm bolts. There is also an angle bracket attached to this flap in the center that latches to an overhead support, but there are no bolts on this bracket. The drain plug is on the right (passenger) side, pointing aft, and can be unscrewed by extending your right hand up from the bottom center. It's black and plastic and is meant to be unscrewed by hand.
