I always remove the intake pipe and then fill it up with a funnel that has a long hose attachment

Go to an auto parts store; they have funnels with usually about a 2 foot hose attached that is meant specifically for transmissions. They usually call it a transmission fluid funnel for obvious reasons.

Buy the pump that goes directly on the MTF bottle and simply pump the fluid in from under the car.

If any one has any pics of where to put the fluid that would be awesome.

This is kinda off the topic, but I feel the need to share this. I just went to Auto Zone to see if they could show me some pics. I was talking to a girl that doesn't really know much so she asked someone if they had ever worked on a Honda Prelude. You will never guess what his answer was. "I'm too smart for that." Sounds like your too stupid to know how to work on a front wheel drive. This same guy also said it is common to have eight quarts of oil in the transmission... When your working with a truck. I'm sorry but no truck should be compared to a Prelude, or any Honda car for that matter. Sorry, but I had to release that bit of anger.

Find the Speed sensor, take it out and fill the fluid through there.
