make sure you get the fan with the rad your putting in tho, they dont fit all rads.

dont think so mate, a 1ltr rad has the outlet and inlet pipes on 1 side, were as a 1.2,1.3,1.4 and 1.6 has the inlet on the top of 1 side and the outlet on the bottom of the other side, think thats right!, might have to change a hose?

Yup, as per my thread above, the 1L rad is different. However, you could possibly get a 1.2 etc rad and bodge the pipework to match but it would probably be easier to stick with the 1L item.

1ltr rad got two holes on one side only, 1.2 got one hole on each side so you would need a longer pipe to get from waterpump to another side of 1.2 rad.

be easier if you get another 1ltr rad.
