Default Radiator help please :-)

Anyone have any experience with the aluminium radiators off eBay? The unbranded ones? They all have same spec but all prices seem to be different. Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks :-)

Not sure about the one's off ebay...but as always when buying things off ebay..unless the feedback is 100%...approach with caution.

I had mine changed on my P1 a couple of years back at RCM and they do a patent radiator which was a fraction of the cost of the genuine Subaru items.


And they fit them all day long so if it's good enough for Roger Clarke..it's good enough for me!

Try them maybe or a another good reputable supplier.

also check the location of the ebay seller, there is a popular seller from the north west who has a bad rep on subaru parts on ebay.
