GTI6 Radiator Buying Advice

[ozonehostile]

Working on various 6's I've encountered two different bottom hose designs Sam, ones the bayonet type with a hook each side that hold it together with the flange on the rad inlet and the other has a circlip fastening like on the top hose to thermostat housing connection. 

Nissens do both styles of rad so check what hose connection you've got on the 1.8/rallye. If they're different on each car I imagine you could just swap the bottom hoses when it comes time to change the rad anyway. 

Just a heads up from what I've discovered lol
