2007 Tansmission Drain & Refill - What funnel?

I did the transmission drain and refill on my newly acquired 2007 TL S-Type. It took exactly 3.5 quarts. My question is what do you guys use for a funnel? The dipstick opening was too small for any funnel that I had. I ended up using a piece of 3/8" I.D. rubber hose stretched over the dipstick opening and the smallest funnel I had shoved in the other end of it. Is there another place to fill that sucker up or do I just need to go shopping for a mini-funnel?

You'll still need a fairly long funnel to reach it, the fill hole is down in there pretty good.
