Changing Manual Trans Fluid on a 2003 Tacoma 2.4?

Can anyone point me in the right direction for a writeup? Is it pretty similar to Bob's writeup below?

Changing Your Manual Transmission Fluid
Thank goodness for manual transmissions: its a very simple drain and fill! As always, unbolt the drain plug first. Begin by placing your oil pan underneath the drain plug and then remove the bolt, located on the passenger side, with a 24mm socket. Next remove the fill plug, which is located on the driver's side. It's easier to use a crescent wrench here to remove the 24mm bolt. Place both bolts/washers in a safe location and let the transmission fluid drain.


Remove the 24mm drain plug/washer. This one is very easy to remove. Remove the 24mm fill plug w/ a crescent wrench. Space is a little tight here, but its doable.

After the transmission fluid comes to a slow drip, re-fasten the drain plug. Next, fill the transmission with 2.3 quarts (69 oz) of Amsoil 75W-90 Gear Lube. Replace the fill plug and then you're ready to move onto the front differential.
