Transmission slightly overfilled!

Hey guys,

I just got back from the shop after changing the trans fluid, trans filter, and fuel filter.....

The fuel filter made it much better!

But... After I got home I put the car in park and just wanted to double check the trans level...

I checked it while the temp gauge read 80C and the engine idling in park...
Level ground as well...

I measured about 3 times but it is about half a cm above the max indention...
how can I get rid of that bit of fluid? should I crawl underneath the car and try to loosen the plug a bit and let it drain some off? Or how can I "siphon" some out?

I don't have a lift so trying to crawl under the low car would be pretty tough....
