Default Dumb Question but which fill hole do you guys use to add fluid

Im adding fluid to the 12 Bolt but which fill hole do I use? I know this is dumb but do I use the one in the cover at the top or the one on the side? Thanks

Use the fill hole on the side. Otherwise, you will overfill the differential. You can use the top fill plug and stop fillling once the oil comes out of the side hole.

Other way around. You can use the top hole, in the cover, and fill until it comes out of the side hole.
