N00b: Where is the filler tube?

Sorry everybody:

I just bought an FD and I'm probably gonna get flamed for this, but I want to add some more Trans fluid to the car, but I dont' know where the filler tube is. Where is it? Any pics?

If you are asking about a manual trans, There is no tube. It is a plug on the side of the trans.

For the manual, there are actually two plugs. One to fill and one to drain. Make sure you can get the FILL plug out first!

The automatics have a dipstick with an orange dot on the firewall side of the Upper intake manifold. You can both fill and pump from this tube.

actually the manual has what appears to be 2 fill plugs and 1 drain. a lot of people use the top plug and end up over-filling the tranny. make sure to use the lower of the two fill plugs
