oh man! where were you before, i already bought it. BTW why did you change it, i mean how did you notice that the radiator gone bad. For me, the heater core went bad and all of the coolant leeked inside from the passenger side, so i by passed it. After that, the car started overheating up to three quarters of the gauge, and the car hezitates as shit when i step on the gas. I asked a lot of mechanics about it and everyone agreed that it's the radiator.

I had to replace it when i noticed that all of a sudden my car had over heated, looked under the hood and noticed i was leaking coolant all over the street...

the reason it overheated in the first place was due to a bad thermostat...
