I believe I saw a friend's Toyota that had the conventional filter mounted "upside down" near the top/front of the engine, with a funnel and drain tube mounted below it so that you could simply unscrew the filter, let the oil drain out into the funnel and back into the engine, and then remove the filter. It looked like a pretty ingenious setup, to me. I have to crawl underneath all of my vehicles to access the oil filter, so I appreciated that design when I saw it.
