The fan bracket (that holds the fan to the radiator has more or less rusted away and is flapping about. I have had a look on rimmerbros and can't find the bit I need, but basically it is the long metal strip that runs the width or the rad top and bottom that the fan housing attaches to

does this make sense?

I need to know, if I buy a new rad will it come with the bits I need to securly re-attach the fan housing?

Cheers!

1.6

After a brief search, I think it is a part of the rad, it is the thin metal strip on the top and bottom...

Are All ZS rad's interchangeable?

seems to fit a number of them - perhaps only non-AC versions...?

Your link is for 1.6 and 1.8 non aircon, but the 110 & 120 seem to use the same rad.

Yesh, looks good to me!

Looks pretty easy to do, too - touch wood!
