FN2 Damaged radiator

[FN2TOM]

Hiya all, wonder if anyone can help. I had a run in with a fox yesterday morning and its pushed the rad back off its mountings a punched a hole clean through it. Does anyone have a idea how much an oem rad is to supply and fit. Thanks in advance

Thats a **** do. Has it not destroyed your bumper too?

No idea on a oem one but found this on htune, specifically listed for an fn2 so hopefully would be a direct replacement and there easy enough to fit.

Other than that. Perhaps trying to find someone breaking one.

Believe it or not no, other than a bit of fur the bumper hasnt got a mark on it, the fox went straight through the grille and was still in there when i pulled up.
Thanks for that mate, i suppose now its a good excuse to upgrade lol
I'd thought about a salvage part but would rather have a new one.
Thanks again

OEM Radiator (Honda) is around £240 plus fitting
Non-Honda Radiator can be picked up for around £120. (You can buy these from Honda too, they will offer an alternative)

Budget 1.5 hr labour to remove and fit new

Cheers bud, thats not as bad as i was expecting to be honest just money i could have done without spending. Are the non oem parts any less efficient?

We've fitted a couple to FN2's at work and we've had no problems.
I think the ones we use are Nissens.
