$12 from Bernardi + shipping, so the whole thing for me was around $20.

Thanks for the info.

This is a "must-do" for me. I really dislike the electronic monitoring.

Finally installed one. The MMI oil level is cool, but I don't like that you have to wait 2 minutes, it has to be warm, you can't see the oil, can't smell the oil, can't feel the oil, can't taste the oil. OK, that last one I threw in to check if you were paying attention

The oil level on the stick exactly corresponds to the MMI oil level. Here's some pics of the new stick, installed in the engine, and the old plug that it replaced.
