The reservoir for the system is on the right side. The fill plug is on the far right of the reservoir at about the mid point. It can be topped off while it is still in the car.

Not familiar with a vert, what are you guys taking about. I assume the roof motor. Is it a hydraulic pump or does it drive gears? Just wondering.

Hydraulic and there's no reason to take it out.
