yes, should hold a patch or a plug either way. We typically install a plug from the inside(this helps to push any steel cord out that may have broken and keeps debris from reentering the wound) and then patch over that.

That's a good idea. It's hard for me to trust someone to properly plug a tire.
Most shops won't fix that. It can be done but could also fail and cause a blow out. A 15 dolar patch job isn't worth the manslaughter charge or law suite for patching that. Plug it and run it. Its your best shot.

The dark shaded line on the sidewall of your tire looks like you have already been running it with low tire pressure which weakens the sidewall... If you air it up to normal tire pressure (whatever it says on the tag inside the door, gas cap door or glove box) and you see it forming bubbles on the sidewall you need to go ahead and get that tire replaced...
