Hod do I change manual transmission fluid?

Ok. I've decided that I'm going to try and change the manual transmission fluid. However, I can't find any videos or instructions on how to do it? Can you guys help me? I've never done this before.

ONLY use the Manual Transmission fluid from the Nissan dealer ask for 350z manual trans fluid. You need some clear plastic tubing in the plumbing section from Home Depot, 1/2" inner diameter, check pictures

I have been told by a few reliable sources that it does not matter what fluid you decide to use but it must be the right viscosity. I want to go with either Redline Synthetic or Royal Purple. Read really good reviews on both.

You are correct, that is why I mentioned the OEM

And I'm still confused by the pictures. Can you give me some instructions or tell me where that is located?

Keep the car as flat as possible, you might need to jack it up a little to get under the car to insert the tube into the trans, the 2 foot long tube is run down the back of the engine right in front of the windshield wipers and then inserted into the fill hole on the right hand side of the trans
