Is there an easy way to add ATF to 1990 Maxima?

I just replace transmission with rebuilt one, but can find a decent way to add ATF without spilling everywhere. Also, any hints on measuring level without over or underfilling?

    Go to Jiffy Lube please. But if you must do it your self, warm up your car, check fluid level. Remember that unlike the oil the transmission is measured in pints not quarts on the dipstick (1 pint equals 1/2 quart). So from the botom line to the top line is 1/2 quart. make sure its warmed up, take it down the road and back and check it and don't over fill it or you'll get bubbles in your fluid and your car will hate you for it.
