  1. Quick update, actually went out to sort my radiator install out today! even though it was bucketing down nothing would stop me to see if it actually would fit or not, needed some time to source another radiator if that was the case. So spent a good while getting the old radiator out, managed to brake almost the full fan shrowd, very brittle it seems, no bother since I'm not planning on reusing it. It's very tight there with the APS TT kit and the AC pipes looks like they've been bent away a less positive way for me to easy fit the new radiator and fans got the old shrowd radiator out after some muscle effort, not much to save so installed my very thin two fans onto the new radiator and started to try and fit it... no chance took some brackets off and cable tied most things that I could move out of the way. Still to tight, the lower brackets (guessing for the AC) was catching the AC condenser fins. Almost gave up when I decided to bend the lower brackets inwards/backwards. Then setup slotted nicely in after that, made sure the pegs went into the holes and locked the radiator into place at the top, screwed the ac condenser into the new rad. Tried to move the radiator (rock solid) (result) stuck all the screws and bits back together (had to cut the upper rad hose since the new width made it far to long). At the last screw to put back it snapped on me half in half out. It's a screw holding the intake pipe (APS) going into one of the front cam covers? (so need to figure out if I need to address this urgently or if I can get an expert to sort it out for me). No photos since it was a daily shower out there all day today. Hoping this rad isn't leaking since I never did a leak test of it before fitting. 7l gone in now, will be getting some more concentrate tomorrow. hope this new radiator (50mm) will help my cooling problems. In summary: A 50mm rad with 2x10mm thin fans fits in the engine bay with APS TT kit
