<VV> Magnets on oil filters

[hihal6 at gmail.com]

Saturns used a magnet in the AT filter and the website below lists two
magnets for use in the AT sump. I don't know of any reason these wouldn't
work as well in the oil pan. My OEM Saturn AT filter had a round magnet at
the top of the AT filter which I wipe clean and reuse when replacing the
filter and changing fluid.
