Hi Guys,
 
As promised, attached are a few photos side by side of the new heater core i bought off ebay, and my original one.
 
I am yet to actually fit it into the car and test operation as i need to first fix some rust in the hear plenum and dont want to have to pull it all out again (including the dash!) when the time comes to fix it.
 
All in all it is a great fit. It comes with sticky back foam to cut down the rattles, and certainly fits into the existing cavity in the heater box assembly very nicely.
 
Obviously taking exchange rates into consideration, the unit cost me $125 delivered to my door. And i must say this seller was awesome. I ordered it on the 9th of this month, and it was delivered on the 15th. Keep in mind there was a weekend in there too.
 
For those thinking of doing this - i can recommend so far.

Does it pass the garden hose test?

yes i was thinking of doing that, but in hindsight i may have made matters worse by putting mains pressure through my old one :)

Just joking, please don't do it to your new one.  You will f%$k it.
 
Cheers
