Disposable Funnels...
Dont know if anyone has posted this, but I didnt see one when I searched:

http://www.eliteetc.com/difu.html

I keep these in my 8 so I dont have to carry around a plastic funnel I have to clean off everytime I add oil.

I use a cut-down old oil quart - it stacks nicely on top of the 'extra' quart I keep in the car

but then you have to clean or wipe it out so you get left over oil all over the place right or do you just throw it away?

Hmm. They look like snow cone cups with the end cut open. 25 for $1.25. You can probably get them for free in Hawaii. :D
I have used disposable funnels, usually given free when buying a quart of oil at gas stations.

Almost every gas station I've been to give these out free and you don't even have to buy anything
I usually ask for 3 or 4 at a time.

I get them for free in California, especially along Highway 5.
