I've had good success with merely jacking up that side of the car a little
and pouring it in through the fill/check hole...no speedo hold-down screw 
to strip, no strap to lose, no speedo gear to chip or drop back into the
transmission, no snaking a funnel down past all the crap in the way or
pouring expensive gear oil on the floor when I didn't realize the funnel
tip had 'bumped' up out of the speedo hole... :)
