Stripped my oil pan plug

10 mm just slips on my 15'. Buying a replacement plug from Doorman and a cheap 10 mm socket. Buddy has a welder. Going to permanently marry the cheap 10 mm and the plug. Wish me luck. Have 121k miles on the Volt. Majority since I've owned it have been all electric. Got it in January of 2020 with 58k miles for $13k.
