Ok I know where that is assuming you have the 3.8 L V6 and not the 3.5 L. For the 3.8 L it's towards the bottom of the radiator (on the side facing the engine) on the right side of the car if you're looking at the front end. All it is is a little white plastic wingnut. It's very difficult to get to and I had a lot of trouble turning it but with a little elbow grease you should be able to turn it. It doesn't need to be turned that much. There's a rachet wrench called The Gator Grip which is a cheap As Seen On TV thing that uses one head to turn all bolts. I used this on the wing nut and was able to get it loose with it. You can order them online but I think places like Target and CVS sell them. The best way to reach it would be to lie on the ground and reach underneath to get it b/c it's easier and there's no chance that the fans will do some serious damage to your arm, which is possible trying to reach from the top. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that the radiator on both engines is the same (easier and cheaper for the manufacturer) so the drain plug should be in the same location.
