SIze of transmission drain plug and the filler hole

Hey guys, what size is the transmission drain plug and the filler hole plug? If I remember right, they are weird size. I want to do the transmission fluid myself, but i am afraid i dont have teh nesscessary tool to change it. What do I need to remove those 2?

I don't know the size. But I can offer advice from my first time.

Make sure you undo the fill plug (And check plug on turbo trannys). If your luck was the same as mine, this will happen. You will drain your transmission fluid. Then try the fill plug. It will be frozen. Your car is officially strandred. It took PB Blaster, torch, and a 2 foot adjustable wrench to make it move.

i'm about 80% sure it's a 24mm. ditto on checking out your fill plug before draining the trans. it took me a while longer than i planned to get that sucker off.
