4th Generation Radiator plug location on 98 Camry

Hello everyone. Ive come across this site after searching and searching on the web for some help. This may sound like a question that someone who knows nothing about cars should be asking and that pretty much what it is. Ive run into some major problems with my 1998 Camry CE and I was recommended to do a radiator flush. It seems easy enough except that I can not for the life of me find the radiator plug to drain any fluids from it. Can anyone please tell me where to find it?

Like I said, it probably is a stupid question and should be very obvious, but I cant find it anywhere. Ive looked from the top of the radiator looking down, Ive gone under the car and looked around, and I just cant find it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Drivers side of the rad alll the way at the bottom. DONT use any tools to loosen/tighten the plug, it will crack. Finger tight is all it needs.

Its really easy to get to from the top.

Are you doing a chemical flush or are you just drain/refilling the rad?

Refill with Toyota Red coolant and distilled water.
