Oil Drain Washer - two normal ones, one wierd one
Ya, gotta be careful when ordering Oil Drain Plug Washers for Oil Changes!
The two 'blue' colored washers have a rough feel to both sides and are the proper type of washer to use. Over the zillion years I've done oil changes, they've always been the same blue washers.
Some 'shady' dealers like Toyota of Garden Grove will try to sell you a black washer (not shown), which is for the Corolla/etc, or try to swap it out for these odd dark gray washers (which aren't even flat!).
DEFINITELY DON'T listen to them!!!! These blue washers are still being sold everywhere and are the correct part. 90430-12031
