Well, the easiest way to find out is to look on top of the hump behind the radio panel and see if there is a rubber plug. It'll be on the right facing forward. If there is, pull the plug out and stick your finger down there and feel for a metal loop, if it's there, that's the top of the stick, pull it out and check the oil. If it's not there, then you have a side fill. You might have to fashion a short hook from stiff wire to pop it loose. I think the hole was still in the later cars but the tranny was changed. I might be wrong on that. I use the recommended 20/50 in mine.
