Sits perfectly level and central as well. Happy days, took the best part of 8 hours just to mount the cooler tho but its totally worth it.

Looks great Phil all of it. I've often woundered how good these coolers are as they look the business and cost so little. I'm looking forward to see your vagcom logs.

I take it to fit the cooler requires air con removal, rad moved back choppin and grinding etc.
Can't believe how much space you made! I only just managed to get the Laguna in with a tub of lard and hammer lol

Yeah exactly that, no way would you be able to fit it without all that unless you made a custom crash bar.

I've been sat here wondering how the hell you squeezed that core behind there without touching the bumper and then the penny dropped - air con removal! Wish I'd binned mine now lol.
Nice one Phil, looking good. I remember my IC taking a long time to install neatly but it's worth taking the time to do it right as you say.

Just as a head's up to those wondering about ebay coolers or just wondering about having a custom one made, I advise you have a read over:

I'm not snubbing Phil's choice at all, but people should think carefully before parting with their cash

Very true indeed, but for 90 quid delivered with very good quality (bar and plate, nice welds etc..) ill be happy for a while and if need be i can switch to a 60mm core from Forge which is the exact same size.
Looking good Phil your car is coming along nicely now and now you have a turbo that the car has been crying out for, good work mate.
