Drain plug is at the back of the diff, pretty much in plain sight. Fill plug is harder to find; it is next to the right/passenger side output flange, oriented toward the front of the diff and car. See photo. I just did this job yesterday, took almost 2 bottles of fluid. Note - output flange not pictured. I removed both my flanges to replace the seals.

17mm wrench for both plugs.
