I need a new radiator for my car, it's a 2001 VX Commodore SS. The current dead one is a Calsonic 010719163939. Does anyone know where I can source a replacement.

Thanks

Obi

Go for a PWR all ally rad, pricey but excellent quality.

Does the PWR fit ok on a Holden? I was never impressed by the fit on the MKIV Supra.

does the rad have a plastic top and an alloy fin section?

If so, you can have the refurbished, had mine done at a place in kent, can find it again if your rad is like that, cost me about £100 on my Lexus a few years ago, might be worth a look into
