It worked pretty good, but it was kinda messy. Used a cheap little fluid transfer pump like this to get the fluid up and into the fill hole: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Custom-Acc...-Pump/16767856

And also used this for the temp reading of the fluid/pan (bought it a couple yrs ago for the first fluid change): http://www.harborfreight.com/non-con...9465-8905.html

It's a little cramped to reach the fill hole, and when fluid is draining out the fill hole as the temp is getting close to the ~35-40C, it's pretty slippery getting the plug threaded back in there.

This is the place I ordered from: http://www.thectsc.com/catalog/6hp26...-8-page-2.html
