Default MK1 Tiptronic transaxle service?

I googled but couldn't find anything (technologically inept perhaps) but I'm looking to drain and refill the transaxle fluid in my C2 tip. Any words of advice are appreciated!

Changing/servicing the transaxle on the tip is a bear. When I was recently doing my fluid change my indy and I tried to figure out how to gain access to the drain/fill plugs, wasn't able to.

When you do it please take a lot of pics and post the how-to, then I'll owe you a few beers!
