no just go to the parts store tell them you need a single oversized drain plug for a neon... they should have them on hand if they don't go to a different parts store and never step foot in that one again cause they are retarded... lol they make up to triple oversized drain plugs just for this reason... they are setup to thread into the pan (self tapper like)
