I use a Filter Mag.
I'm never sure how effective it is. I've listened to the arguments about particle size and debris traps, The way I see it is that for $25 it was a good insurance policy even if it never catches a thing.

Currently do not use either one - but may install the magnetic oil plug when I get ready to change the oil again.

Same here. Filter Mag. Very powerful magnets used on it. It attaches to the side of the filter so no ground clearance issues. Widely available from a number of sources. Shop around for best price.

Magnets suck
I put magnetic drain plugs in all three, eng., trans., and rear end, as well as a super magnet on the bottom of the eng. oil filter. I only have one problem,,,,,,,,,, if I am driving too slow I suck up manhole covers.
