trans-fluid change simplified... Dunno if this will help someone or not. But I went to Home Depot's plumbing section and picked up a roll of clear tubing just big enough for a small funnel to go in one end and small enough for the other end to go into the fill hole.
I left the car on the ground, slid a pan under, reached in, undid the drain plug. Let it drain, put the plug back in, took out the fill plug, put my hose/funnel in, poured the trans fluid until it started to drizzle out, plugged it back up and the whole job only took me maybe a half hour and I didnt have to get out the ramps or jack and stands etc.
