And, to make it less messy the next time you want to change the filter, replace the stock pan with one that has a drain plug (if yours doesn't have one)!

Just make sure you loosen the bolts on one end of the pan before you remove the bolts from the other end. Then, the pan will hang down a couple of inches and pour into your drainpan.
