Default Easiest way to fill tranny fluid?

Being that I've had my car over a year, it's the first car I've owned long enough to need a fluid change.

What's the easiest/ quickest way to refill the MTF without a lift? I don't have 4 jackstands to make the car perfectly level, so I'm thinking of just removing the wheel and using one small jackstand if it has any bearing.

I'll probably toss a hose on a funnel but was wondering if the speed sensor trick works on the ITR.

Yes, it works. Probably the fastest way.

over flow FROM THE REGULAR FILL HOLE, NOT THE VSS HOLE. leave the regular fill hole open as you fill and stop filling when it starts to come out of the regular fill hole.

How's it break (I'm sure I could find a number of ways ), typically speaking.

Does it just pop out after removing a 10mm bolt and plug or something?

remove the 10mm and clean the dirt/dust from around the hole... then twist and lift out.

don't drop it.
