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. |

In the same boat as you Tony
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. 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. |

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. |

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.
