2012 TL Coolant Reservoir Removal

Hey everyone! I have a 2012 TL and I’m planning on preforming a coolant drain and fill, but I’ve ran into an issue. Instead of using a hand pump to drain the reservoir I was hoping I could detach the reservoir and dump the coolant out. Problem being I can’t seem to locate what’s holding the reservoir in place. I was hoping I could find an answer here before I start arbitrarily undoing parts. If a hand pump is the way to go, I don’t mind spending the 15 dollars or so.

Thanks for your time guys!

The coolant reservoir should be able to be removed by just pulling up on it.
