Default Anybody seen this "funnel"?

Just saw this on tv. I am thinking it might help contain the mess when I change the roadglide's oil. Hoping it'll also help with my wife's trailblazer, where the oil runs all over the crossmember when I remove the filter. I can see using it on my lawnmower also, and several other uses. Don't know about ya'll, but for me, this looks like one of those 'why the hell didn't I think of that' items...

That's a good idea. Wonder how it holds shape under hot oil.

I have 3 funnels.
1 large tall
1 short small
1 tall small

They get the job done.

I've got several funnels also. None of 'em fit under the filter of my glide though. This might work well for that.

I picked one up at NAPA last week. Haven't had a chance to try it yet.
Feels like a sheet of lead coated with rubber. Holds whatever shape you make.
