    M30 Swap : Radiator Support @ Bottom

    How did you secure the bottom of your radiator? Lessons learned? Improvement ideas?

    Thanks!

    I re-used parts of the metal tabs I cut off to clear the e28 535 rad I used and braced it closer to the bottom.

    win/win. cost $0.

        I used 2 pieces of sheet metal to press the radiator against the rad support on either side. I drilled holes in the metal to line up with holes on the rad support.

          Easy enough. I guess I will get a pair of good snips and work something out. Thanks guys.

          Wanted to see if there was an OEM type solution.
