I believe it's about $26 each and 2 orders or more free shipping.

I'm not sure if they'll do a group buy; but let me email or call them and ask..

For 26 I'm in. Mind you I have no idea on the install of this thing...., if it makes oil changes that much more of a breeze then I'll just do them myself. Right now I have my own mechanic do it. Costs me $40 cash for my lexus, so the Lancer shouldn't be any more expensive then that.

The install of this is simple: replace the drain plug. DONE.

$40 is a good price for an oil change. If that is for synthetic, then this valve will save you nothing.

I had one of these for my WRX before I sold it to buy my Evo. This thing really made for a tidy oil change. If you get the F106-N you can attach a tygon hose to the nipple on the valve and drain into any container you like, without a mess.

I bought my car used, my oil temp sensor was leaking & I was getting rid of the factory gauges anyway - so, I bought one of these

Yes - I got mine on amazon for $23.50 (Free shipping with prime/over $X amount)

I got mine back in August 2013 and.. I installed it per instructions, not over tight, not loose.. and it has a VERY SMALL leak, I noticed it a few days ago when I was under my car and wiped it clean, I was back under my car today and it's moist, no noticeable puddles/drips on the ground.

lol this was a bump to something i bumped a year and half ago. ironically, i have a small oil leak with my drain plug, though i think it's something from a gauge that i don't use anymore for oil temp. probably just going to use the stock plug myself now.
