Where to get M22 oil drain plug & 5/8" capoff?

Hey Guys,
I called Autozone, Advanced Auto parts, and Discount Auto.
None of them had the M22 oil drain plug or 5/8" capoff. Biggest size all of them had was a M20.
I want to do the !AIR (smog pump) mod.
I will not be doing the egr since I want to keep the cats.
Any Ideas???

I got mine from Napa. (local store, but their site is www.napaonline.com)

Part number: BK 7041048

Or you can tell the stores you need a drain plug for a 1980 BMW 320i.

BTW, I just removed my stock manifolds so I won't need mine anymore. If you want them, they're yours free.

The M-22 Drain Plug can be had at NAPA, Thats where I got mine from. Its off some 86 BMW as the Oil drain plug.... MAKE THEM SEARCH FOR IT, or they simply tell you " WE DONT CARRY IT "

Actually, I just thought of something. Since you have a 96 (unless your headers are for a 93-95), you need like an M18 or something.... 3/4 X 16 to be more precise.

Thanks guys
I hadn't tried Nappa yet.
Yep, the headers are '96-97 style headers for dual cats.
(M-18 it is then).
Hyperspeed....your right. I had one guy tell me they didn't have it before I even told them all the info., LOL
Madwolf....I appreciate the offer, but I want to do the mod Monday. My 3.73 gears will be going in Tuesday providing nothing comes up. PCM will hopefully go out Wednesday.
I'll hit you up via email once I get a little closer to sending it out.

Thanks again.

I got my M22 at Jiffy Lube. No kidding. They have all sorts of plugs there. The M22 fits a Toyota differential. It was about $4.50 (I think.).
