I must agree with you. IPS has awesome customer service. Its amazing what kinda impression you can get from someone's tone of voice. IPS

Re: OT just thought I'd give a thumbs up to IPS (TypeRod)

Will the oem gaskets that come from the honda dealer work with these spoon drain plugs?

The fitament of the gasket is not as tight on the spoon vs oem drain plug. Are there any issues with oil leaky? What purpose does the gasket server as?

What is the thread pitch and size of the socket for the spoon?

So you can't use the washers you get from the dealership with the Spoon drain plugs?? that doesn't seem right. I think you can use any washer. but then again what do i know! hehe!
