Radiator replacement bits?

Post by dvhttn »

Right, after my previous thread regarding possible expansion tank cap leaks it turns out that it's almost certainly the radiator ... doh! So, getting to it and replacing it are fairly straightforward (having had the front off of the car many times!) but just checking which 'bits' are necessary to order before starting. Obviously the radiator ( :0 ) but also the hose clips? These from VW or elsewhere? Seen the radiator on CP4L (about £41 delivered) and Fleabay ( ... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BRAND-NEW-RAD ... 1438.l2649 ... about £32 delivered). Preferences, or much of a muchness?
