Sorry to nitpick, JS2K, but you didn't mention taking the oil cap off before you drain the oil. It's kind of important.

Either way, this is a kickass idea that OEM's should just put in the car in the first place. I've had a few places mis-thread a drain plug. This eliminates all wear and tear on that plug & threading. I guess my concern is "Why doesn't Honda do this?"

Regardless, put me on the list for this and some Berlina keyhole plugs. =]

I don't believe that engine vibrations should be an issue. I've had mine on for 3 years without issue, and some people have had theirs on for 5-6.

Oops I guess I forgot a step. I was trying to keep the video short and quick to watch.
Hehe, but if all manufacturers did this, all the quality places like Jiffy Lube might go out of business!

so this just directly replaces the oil drain bolt? Can you really just reach it through the top of the engine bay? i thought the drain bolt was all the way at the bottom?

Yep, it replaces the drain bolt. Yep, just reach into the engine bay and you can open the valve. Yep, it's at the bottom, you you'll still be able to reach it.

Interesting product...

Can you get the thread adapters in any size at this same price? I may need some custom sizes.
