It's easier than changing engine oil.

I just did it on my 94 accord last weekend and it so easy. Make sure you also change the Plug washer and use Honda fluid.
The drain plug is by the side of front pass. side wheel.
Very simple.

I've never done it myself. I let the place that changes my oil do the tranny fluid

piece of cake, theres a drain bolt on the side of the tranny. 3/8" drive fits right into it, fill through the dipstick. 3qts Honda ATF-Z1

shouldn't you flush the trans fluid and not bother with drain and fill?
