Anyway, I will check and try to post.

You can get any how-to you want for the whole car from:

... for $30 per day.
I know it sounds odd for the 6sp manual, but there is some sort of pump in there that needs to be activated to remove all of the old fluid. My plan will be to just drain what I can and refill. There will still be some old fluid, but it's better than not changing it at all.
