There is a gold 17mm bolt above the one you removed to drain the oil. If you can not get it off then remove the vss and pour it there. 2 quarts of 10-30 or if you are a pimp honda mtf and if you are super pimp then get one quart syncromesh and one quart lucas oil modifier that is what I run.

Filling up the gearbox oil can be done either via the fill hole, or by taking out the vehicle speed sensor (VSS). There is ONLY 1 BOLT holding it in and it's a really tall bolt. Just fill it via the VSS hole till you see fluid coming out of the fill hole.

You can see the VSS siting on the left of the pipe here:



Be very careful that you do not over tighten the VSS bolt as it will snap the bracket.
