I have a '91 300d, and want to see if there's some way to NOT have to remove the front 1/2 of the belly pan. Putting the screws back in is always like an Easter egg hunt.

Additionally, I considered one of those oil drain plugs where all you have to do is attach a hose to the plug, without taking the plug out, turn a knob, and the oil comes out. If I could cut a small hole into the plastic belly pan to do that, that might be the way to go. Just have the cut out piece to plug the hole and open on an as-needed basis.

Thanks,

jeff
