2003 CLK cabriolet convertible rooftop reservoir location and refill instructions?

I noticed a leak coming from the case cover (rear passenger side) bow hydraulic. The fluid leaked onto the trunk and seems to have been depleted. Now I cannot close my convertible top. I’m trying to locate the actual reservoir and to see if there’s a simple way to fill it back up with fluid from this line circled in red?

Is it possible for the 2003 that I could use this line to fill my hydraulic reservoir? I’m not sure where the reservoir actually is?
Fluid using a syringe?

The reservoir and pump is behind the rear seat backrest. Remove the plate in the trunk and you will have access.
