Hey all, are there any recomendations on where to get one? Have heard various stories of shoddy ones available, seen various ones on ebay etc but look the same to me.

Is it worth while in fitting one, temps wise?

I've had two from TX too, one then they first start which was great, really tidy welds and all that. 2nd a few years ago when TX was bigger rad wasnt as well made, but still tidy enough.

I need another now, but wont go TX again i dont think.

I found they cool much better.

Radtec if you don't mind paying the extra for the quality.

Whats wrong with the one you have now benn?

Tx are about the same price as the ebay ones, probably the same?

Would love that kev, but moneys not on my side at the mo. I may get the car up and running and get the rad after that.
