Ok here is a picture of the cooler at the front installed with all the extras removed. You need to seat it quite the way back.. Its barely 10mm from the actual metal if you wanna have a look.

If you look back here this is behind the cooler. Cant remember the exact name of the black contraption bakc here, but you have to mount it up pretty close to this. Dont mount it on or you will get **** cooling... IE no blow through from it. I have mounted it not 5-10mm off of this. On a random side note this is the calibre 10" thermo fan. Probably could of gotten a 14" fan in there no issues. I have air con running and during summer it was good enough to keep the car on just below half idling in the city(melbourne). Very impressed.

I have pics to show how I have mounted it in and around the air con and power steering. Trust me if i can get it on and in there, any1 can... I have some very big **** off hoses on the hot side of my motor there... Guys dont be afraid to be a little rough... Cars dont break that easy and well to be honest its a VL... ****s cheap to replace!

05-09-09, 12:13 GMT+10#291 Son Got one Wednesday fitted it on Thursday car has power steer and ac problems we encountered we had to replace thermo fan for ac that was ok had to bend power steer pipe on pass side forward to allow for clearance of pipe had to relocate ac hose on pass side guard as pipe fouled up getting it to turbo
Had to pull foward lower cross over pipe and make a bracket to hold i against the lower radiator support so joiner would clear front of ac pulley had to relocate horn as it hit the inter cooler all in all good product but 2 hours to fit yeah right if you don't have ac and power steer it took me the best part of 6 hours and before you all give me a hard time i have had over 30 years mechanical experience so i am not a greenhorn old55

It took me 2 hours and I have power steering and air con so I don't know what you are talking about. The power steering lines we just had to push up a bit? not bend them. Sounds like a bodge job.
Kits are fine and work great, fitting them are easy
