anyone know how to fix the little plastic tabs that hold the radiator in place?
couple of pics of the problem
so the plastic tabs are broken off and i dont know how to fix it. I do have another radiator that is broken but has tabs that are fine so I'm thinking if its possible to cut them out and then attach them?
Is there a easy way to do this?
or a better solution?
cheers

Seriously thou, you could use anything, you could even use wood. Just make something up that will work/substitute, then use a good adhesive. Like a real good adhesive.... aka Devcon.

True, the the plastic part at the top of the radiator isn't under much stress anyway. The radiator literally it just resting on gromits and the top mounts just keep it upright.
