I would have thourght that any radiator repair shop would be able to repair your current one. If not try a scrap yard ( www.douglasvalley.co.uk )or TVR.

I have just fitted a new (secondhand) heater matrix ro my Chimaera so if you need any fitting tips let me know.

As for getting a second hand one, try bell hill garages or douglas valley (always haggle with their prices though). Nevendon are dismantling a 96 griff so you may be able to get the matrix out of that tel 01702 230268.

I got mine through the PH classified and it cost me about £20.

Hope that this helps

Cheers
Alex

It took me a day and a bit to do myself, but then I didnt know how it was all put together and I took it at a relaxed pace.

I am not sure how long dealers quote the job should take i am afraid.

Cheers
