Why don't you just drain it out?Open the fill plug til the excess drips out and it's level with the fill plug

+1 Just go take care of it and let yourself sleep at night.

I couldn't get mine to budge either.But it still itched at me while I would lay in bed at night not knowing if I had enough or too much fluid in the trans. So I borrowed a square socket from a friend put it on my half inch breaker bar and kicked away at it and broke loose pretty easily.To my surprise it turned out it was a little overfilled as I did not measure how much I put in
