Hi all,
I'm going to replace the radiator on my EL shortly and was wondering where to buy a replacement from in Adelaide? Where is a good radiator shop around the traps? Northern suburbs preferably if possible.

Motor Traders should do you one for about $200.

Thanks Police. I forgot about MTA. I'm heading down to Salisbury on Saturday, so a detour to Cavan might be in order.

It might be a bit away from the Barossa but Ridgehaven Radiators did mine a while ago and a did very good job - completly cored (cleaned) the radiator and fitted a new top tank, had a complete flush through the engine and he also used Tecaloy Gold to refill it - the price was around the 250.00 mark but when he was finished it was just like a brand new one again.
I now make it a habit to get it done before summer hits.

I've sourced a replacement one from Parafield Radiators for $190.
Motor Traders wanted $330 ex GST for an aftermarket one.
