You can take off the speedometer sender and pour oil in through there, but you might want to measure how much you put in, otherwise you will fill it all the way up. Won't hurt it if you do, though, some people prefer it that way.

Get a spiralled broken bolt removing socket. Hammer it on the fill plug and twist it off. Then replace your plug

are you talking about the VSS?(or the equivalent to the VSS on the auto.) i saw something on the top of the tranny that looked like that. that what your talking about?

i just might try that if the above one doesnt work. i was about to pay like $30 to get someone to change it for me. lol. air tools FTW

You can fill it through the breather pipe on top of the tranny. On the top there should be a pipe about 3 inches in length sticking straight up at you and maybe about a 1/4 inch in diameter. It should have a rubber nipple covering the top of it but they often come off and get lost. Anywho you could stick a rubber hose over it and put a hose clamp on. Then on the other end jam a filter into the hose and begin to fill. There are 2 small issues when doing it this way though which are: 1. The fluid goes down the tube and into the tranny pretty slow relative to doing it the correct way. and 2. The tranny burbs and vomits back at you. Anyone who's done it this way without removing the filler bolt knows what i'm talking about....

Good luck

edit: You can see it here

Yes thats what im talking about! Excuse my blackenese. I meant funnel, not filter... lmfao

When you start filling it with the "funnel" it will spit back at you. Just do it and you shall see...

its cool. lmao. im black too. lol. but i just finished doing it man. thanx yo it did spit back at me a little bit. but what i did that made it go a little faster, i had a small funnel and put a straw in the hole after i put the oil in the funnel. it let some air out of the hole and let the oil drain in made it go a little faster and kept it from bubbling back at me too much

thanx once again man. now all i got to do is get my tentsioner fixed and ill be good.

Sorry I'm replying late, but yes, I meant the VSS. I spaced on the correct name for it when I first wrote it, and I thought speedometer sender would get the point across.

Anyways, I'm glad you got it figured out.
