Did you have any issues getting all the oil to drain out? Obviously the hole in the valve is significantly smaller than the one in the pan. I was thinking of draining it when the engine's hot, but I don't like the idea of replacing room temp oil into a hot motor.

Got mine here: http://www.qwikvalve.com/home.php

It's one of those completely unnecessary mods that's a nice to have. I'm running out of practical ideas for modding that don't cost a small fortune.

Looks like it's $23 - $30, plus $5 for clip & hose?

I paid $28 including shipping. You don't need the hose or clip, just the valve. If you DIY your oil changes they are the bomb.

The Fumoto valve will make it even easier and cleaner.

Gotta get me one of those Fumoto thingamajigs!

Bought me some clear lenses w/leds
Theyre from ebay seller "streetune". I looked for the oem flat style but came up empty and I don't like the bump style. Figured these were worth a shot (seller had good ratings) @ $30 shipped, with leds.
Made in Tawain. Seem sealed up well and fit perfect. Looks more better than Amber on the corner. Now I have to get my headlights done and switch out all my other lights with leds.
