<VV> OIl filter magnet

[George Jones]

Easy answer: Before you install your new filter, install your magnet(s) to
the side of the filter and apply a section of duct tape over it/them. Only
remove them after you remove the filter. It's been race proven, but may not
be the best looking modification.
