Looking for Parts

I have a friend who needs a radiator for a 97 2.5 and he doesnt want to go through the dealer. What aftermarket sites do you go and get Acura parts for less.

I got a new radiator from my mechanic and had him put it in. He gave me a pretty reasonable price at $350

I think that procarparts.com has OEM radiators too.

I found a oem radiator at a local auto salvage. It cost me about $165 and I installed it myself. Print out a list of phone #'s and make some calls before spending over $300.

It wasn't such a hard task if you have some mechanical skills. I also found that my Chilton's guide was a very useful tool. It tells you step by step how to remove and replace the radiator. The only hard part about it was trying not to damage the new one as I was installing.
