I use a funnel & a piece of clear plastic tubing.  I put the funnel 
high up in the engine compartment & attach it to a piece of clear 
plastic tubing running down into the tranny oil input hole.  I slowly 
pour the specified amount of oil in the funnel & watch it go down 
inside the tubing,  When I get to 90% of specified capacity I pour 
more slowly & wait for the extra oil to begin to leak out.  Go under 
the car & pull the hose out of the tranny & put it into an oil bottle 
(till it drains) put the plug back in.  Clean the funnel & I am done.
