HI
This is'nt going to be much help but i could'nt get the clio rad to fit. I had the mk noes as well. The polo rad fits but im no shore what year and engine size. I ended up with a mercedes rad.

Hi frankie, is that the 190 merc rad?

In the same boat as you Tony :rolleyes:

I have spent almost the entire day today, messing with a golf GTI rad .... Very tight fit & a real barsteward trying to position it so as the bottom hose will miss the front frame. :confused: :confused:

Would be great to find a rad that has the top & bottom outlets in opposite corners .... Better still, in the middle :)

Hi
I think you are right its from a 190. It was second hand from the local garage swapped it for the clio. I will be looking to put the same one on my new build with a zetec.

HI frankie and you too ronnie, I'll have a look then at the merc rad but what did you do for the fan, is it an aftermarket one and is in front or behind the rad,
cheers,
tony.

HI
Got a fan from the brackers off a micra. Fitted it to blow throw as it was on the micra. I got a an adjustable thermostat from CBS. Works well.

HI frankie thanks for info are you going to stoneleigh if so would be nice to see face behind the mail.
cheers

I will be there in the roadster on sat/sun Looking for would to it.
See you there Tony.

I fitted mine under a Saturn nose cone. It had loads of clearance all around it. I'm surprised that the MK nose cone is so different.
