Drain plug on the tranny is located on the passenger side, towards the rear. As for the links, I have both of them. The first one can be a bitch to fill a rearend with because it is thick oil, but will work fine for tranny fluid. The other leaks a lot of thin oil, such as tranny fliud lol.
Or you could remove the shifter and pour four quarts in it that way.

Go to autozone. Ask them for the little orange fluid transfer pump. Its really cheap and it looks like this...
Its always behind the counter on one of the parts isle end caps at my store. Its next to the little hand siphon pumps...which dont work for crap haha. Get yourself some teflon tape while you are there to seal up the drain/fill plugs on the trans.
I took one of my hoses (comes with two long ones) and trimmed it so that it was long enough to reach the bottom of an oil bottle. That leaves the other piece long enough to reach up to the fill hole, without a ton of excess hose to worry about. I forget if the top sucks or the bottom sucks. Just use your cheek or something while pumping to find out which one is which.
It works like a charm. Pump until you get fluid coming out of the fill hole. Pull the hose and quickly insert the fill plug. You want the fluid level around the bottom of that fill hole. It'll take somewhere around 4 quarts...depending on the angle of the car and how much old fluid you get out.
