I've tried multiple times to bring my own parts to a shop and have them put them on but nobody has allowed me to do so. I took my old civic to a firestone and they ground down the drain plug into a square because it was stuck and I wasn't able to get it off, and I had a new drain plug, oil filter, and oil ready to go. But they wouldn't touch it because they told my I had to use their parts. I'm pretty sure it was just so I would spend more money there but they weren't backing down. Now I have a new drain plug that I'm sure I'll use one of these days.
