Does anyone know who sells a magnetic drain plug for a v6 mustang,
I know they sell them for older mustangs.

Not sure what hair straighteners have to do with the drain plug buddy.

Just stick a magnet on the outside of your drain plug. That's also how you make a screw driver into a magnetic screw driver. Just hang a magnet on it.

Magnet drain plugs are a waste of money, If your oil has metal filings in it, You have a problem and a magnetic drain plug isn't going to help you. Focus on something more relevant. Like changing your oil and filter.

When you have a new motor or a new car it is a good idea to have one. Also the drain plug is more of an "indicator" that something is wrong, not a fix for the reason there are metal shavings.
