You should contact Auto Radiator Outlet. . 1-800-252-0333 . . . I purchased the upgraded 2 row Koyo Radiator part # 1910KO from them. . . it came out to about $170 after everything. . . Here is a post to get you a better idea of the difference. . . http://www.solaraguy.org/viewtopic.php? ... t=radiator

Now is a good time to take advantage of exchange rates. $200 CDN + difference in shipping.

Good luck with your ride!

It is so easy. . . you don't even need a tutorial. . . I don't think anyone has ever made a DIY on how to change out your radiator
