is200 radiator swap?

mattlaw Koss put the tools away, and step away from the vehicle, I'll help you out at weekend
How am I supposed to break the next bit of the car if I don't replace the latest thing that's gone wrong?
Rad hasn't arrived yet anyway and I'm going to Oktoberfest next weekend.
Phil - an increase in radiator surface area will help the rad cool water faster/more efficiently so it shouldn't need to switch the fans on as often and general water temp should be a bit lower. Doesn't really matter, I just don't see the point in replacing like for like when I can stick a better one on for less money than an OEM one.
