I recently found my coolant was low. No coolant warning but AC was intermittent blowing cold. I had to sort of use the old wedge/pry/twist method to get the plastic airbox feed that sits on the radiator. It was a PITA. And I had to use a couple different hand tools. Does anyone have other fasteners that they can remove by hand?

Seems like radiator -or at least the coolant reservoir should be accessible without tools - if you are roadside or whatever.

Anyone come up with something better?

I'd rather keep things stock....a dealer gave me a bunch of those, probably 10 (although they list for almost $2 each), so I'll never need them again

the part number is 90467-08155

The ones that I did have to buy are the smaller ones you find holding the plastic under the hood. Since they are everywhere, I ordered 30 of them online @ 70 cents each. My local dealer only had 3 and they were like 97 cents.

I also have all the screws and grommets under the car, but don't have those pns handy...

edit was just thinking about this, by tools, you don't mean a phillips screwdriver, do you? That's all that is needed, and even if you don't have one, there's one in the tool kit in the trunk...maybe yours have been replaced with something non OE?

If somebody used these in place of what's supposed to be in there it will be tough to get apart...
