Default LX470 Oil Change

Quick question, I am interested in changing my own oil in the 470 but am not able to locate the oil filter nor the drain pan bolt.

Are they hidden behind a protective covering under the vehicle?

Thanks and sorry for the naive question.

The oil filter is, you will see a small cover that can be removed to access the filter. It's held with two 8mm bolts. The oil drain is simply mounted to the bottom of the pan.

Default Thanks...

Thanks for the advce, I found both items. The thing that confused me was the drain bolt was also behind a shield.
