hey guys im kinda kicking myself right now cuz i think i filled my manual tranny by the wrong fill hole. i added fluid through the top bolt just under the shifter cables, directly behind the shifter on the trans, is this bad? also here is a pic of where i filled it. i know this isnt exactly the same trans but the bolt position looks identical. please let me know

I don't think it's bad. They all end up in the case. I would check the fill level. Pop open the top plug on the side of the tranny. It's facing towards the radiator. If you overserviced it, it'll pour out. If it doesn't, pour more in till it starts to flow out.
 
Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback. I didnt think it was that big of a deal but wasnt sure. This is my first manual DSM so I want to get it right. I tried a couple of searches and couldnt find any one else who asked the same question, but in the end it was just a good ole dumbass mistake.
