I haven't pulled the trunk carpet back yet but went to the garage this morning and there was a small stream of coolant on the floor on the right side by the tire

The tank is the aged yellow color so I'm not surprised this happened , for all I know it is the original tank from 2002 . I did a search on this forum and others and have seen horror stories of how difficult it is to guys doing it in 1 hour with comments of it wasn't bad at all . I have read Pedros tutorial which made it sound like almost all of it can be done in the trunk . So any last minute comments or techniques the forum can add ?
