I got sick of trying to screw in those cheap-o plastic drain plugs on my ar192. Found these plugs on Amazon and put them in today. They are much better looking and also screw in nice and easy. No worrying about squishing the o ring or not threading that cheap plastic wrong.

@yjander .....looks awesome. Question: Did the screw holes line-up? What did you use to bed the new plug - Sikaflex, 3M 5200? Thanks.

Thanks. I don't get water in my boat anymore. I used 3M 4200 fast cure. They were just bedded in their with silicone from the factory.

@yjander .....did the holes of the replacement plug housing line-up with the factory ones or did you have to fiberglass/gelcoat fill first then re-drill?
 
No lined up perfect. Just screw them in with a manual screw driver, not a drill. Don't want them too tight just snug. Use some good 4200 or 5200. Good luck!
