08 Differential cover

Im looking to get an 08 rear differential cover for my 03, and was wondering if they have drain plugs on the bottom of them. I dont have a drain plug on mine and would like one so it would be easier to change the fluid. I can get one pretty cheap so it would be better for me than the aftermarket ones.

No drainplug on the finned-rear cover. Did you look at the Maghytec covers? Finned, magnetic and additional taps for probes.

I'm looking at these as well, where is the best/cheapest place to buy them?

For how often you change rear diff fluid, it doesn't hurt to crack the cover and check out the condition of your gears at the same time.
