I recently had to replace mine, it was a easy task a few bolts and make sure you have something to drain the radiator fluid out. I had fun because the drain plug thing broke on me and I could not get it out. You can do it in about an hour or so,took me more time to find a radiator off line that was decent then to install it. I do not suggest getting a used on as they probably with do the same in some time. Save your money and do it yourself you only need a 14mm socket and a pair of pliers.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts,suggestions,and links. Fortunate to say Jiffy Lube took some responsiblity in the cracked radiator. I ended up having to pay 1/2 their cost for a new radiator and they had one of their mechanics put it in. So my cost was $70. I will continue to keep learning more about my car as I know they are becoming somewhat extinct and I will have to say I do enjoy having it. So I will try to keep her around for as long as I can. Have a great weekend!
