Topping off Manual Transmission Fluid

Topping off Manual Transmission Fluid
I've found several posts saying that there is a plug near the top of the transmission underneath my 1997 manual Ford Mustang.
I have also found articles saying that overfilling a transmissions fluid is very bad.
I have a slow leak in my transmission, and normally have the trans topped off when I get my oil changed. They had no trans fluid to do this with, so I bought Mercon V Automatic Transmission and Power Steering Fluid & plan to do it myself.
Full disclosure, I have no idea what I'm doing. I found a video of what the trans looks like, and think I can find it. My main worry is that I will overfill my transmission... and what if I don't find this magic trans fluid fill nipple after all?
Halp?
