Confirming a/c recharge location

I know this is basic for many but amazingly I have never added R134a to my GT. It feels a bit warmer to me than when the car was new. I've added R134a to other cars but want to confirm the location for the GT. Some videos on YouTube are throwing me off. Is this the right port? Photos show cap on and cap off on driver's side. Thanks!

You may have a leak.

Time will tell. Still blowing cold but not quite as well as when new. We'll see what an extra small can will do, and if it lasts. That will be the key.

Yes, I just did my C4 with it (it does have a very slow leak). Blows real cold now. Still haven't done the GT yet, perhaps in the next day or two when it finally stops raining.
