Radiator Choices

I will need to replace my radiator in my 2003 Mini. It's a base Mini (no SC) with an automatic transmission. The prices and brands are all over the map. One other thing, are there any other line connections like engine oil cooler, transmission oil cooler, power steering oil cooler? Who sells one that is a direct fit for a reasonable price, Mini dealer wanted around $300.00 and I see them as low as $70.00 with shipping , Thanks, AL.

This is a good choice with a LIFETIME warranty.

Serach around and you can find it under $300.00

Isn't it still possible to do your own plumbing on an R50 with a Mishimoto aluminum radiator ? Or is that a bad idea because id have to mod other things aside from the radiator (Coolant reservoir tank, thermostat, etc...)?
