Is it the longer one that goes into teh engine oil pan? I'm guessing that's the one.
Also, do you replace the tranny drain plug or the tranny fill plug with the Spoon magnetic plug? It doesn't look like the Spoon plug will clear the tranny housing...so I'm leaning towards replacing the fill plug, which is also a 17mm bolt instead of the 3/8" drive pattern for the drain plug.

I did do a search using Spoon+magnetic...
Oh wait, I forgot to select "look in topic".
Let me stop kickin' my brain on the floor.

haha, I'm just giving you a hard time. 
It was just funny, 'cuz the titles are almost identical. (and I had done this search this morning.)
And, you'll need a small torque wrench to replace the 3/8" drive w/ new Spoon 17mm plug (space is cramped down there w/ LCA close by). Just remember to level out the car when you fill up the fluid.
