Etiquette calls for using a dog neck cone on your hand which pulls the plug.
The other option is a quickdrain fitting on the oil pan.  Used quickdrains on my
IDI Rabbits, which got changes every 2500 miles.

NO, you  did just fine, except you wore coveralls that had too small a
sleeve.   Larger sleeves catch more of the coolant, and you lose less on the
floor,  small sacrifices to keep a clean workspace...



SOP at the dealer was to tie a shop rag around your wrist or a  little 
higher, when 
draining oil, tranny fluid, etc.  I think Mongo started that and it  was a 
darn good practice!  Dave constantly had black all down his long,  med-light 
blue Wenatchee VW-Porsche_Audi sleeves!
