Mark,

Sounds like you're all set. The fluid comes out of the hose. Keep track of the clip you remove. I used the snap-ring pliers to open it just enough to slip it back. Then it slid down the length of the hose and was a bear to fish out from where it ended up on top of the trans.

When I was finished I took a couple of small hose clamps and installed them around these clips holding the hoses in place. Belt and suspenders piece of mind. I did the same with the oil cooler lines on the other side of the radiator. (Turbo only)

Should only take you 30 - 45 min. If you can, let the car sit for awhile before topping up completely. I found I overfilled mine and had to pump a quart out.
