Refilling Tranny fluid???

So where is the refill plug on my tranny? I took off a bolt that I thought could be it, and there was a rubber seal on the inside.... Is that the refill plug? On the top of the tranny? I have the clutch installed, and I'm ready to re-install the tranny, but I don't want to install it yet because I want to make sure I can fill the damn thing with fluid the RIGHT way. My stupid Haynes manual says nothing about refilling the tranny other than just to do it.... OK, so where is the Input for the oil? Keep in mind I am just learning one step at a time how to fix Sh=t on my RX-7. Please don't flame me, I am just trying to learn. Thanks

There is a plug on the driverside of the tranny that's square shaped. Remove that plug, then feed a tube down thru the engine bay into the hole. This is the easiest way i've found to fill the transmission.

Lmao - Thanks a ton - I found it, only to not find it. Let me explain - I took the Filler bolt out as well when I drained the fluid to begin with. I feel pretty stupid, but thanks for the help!
