transfer fluid change

I'm doing a transfer fluid change right now. I located the drain plug but I'm not sure where the fill plug is. Do I have to remove my downoipe to get there??

No need to remove dp. It's on the passenger side of the TC.

It's a bit of a squeeze but you don't need to remove anything. Here's the relevant part from the Evo IX service manual
