There's always the welly cooler setup - someone had posted this on a Facebook page recently. All the details on what you need, just not sure on exact prices.

cheers for the reply dude was hoping for a straight swap cooler but will check this out first

looks like a good option but want to keep the a/c and don't want to chop bits off the car to be honest

yeah same ones mate but i read on the net somewhere the seller of these has been refunding people that bought them at a cheaper price and refusing to sell and put on a extra £300 on them

anyone know what size bolts are needed to bolt it all back together or are the standard bolts ok?

To quote myself earlier in this topic:

Weight with Silicone pipes = 13.2 KG or 29lbs. Quite a lot in comparison to the S3 core but im hopeful the benefits will far outweigh the extra mass up front.

Also measured up the bolts, they are M6 (10 mm hex) x 16mm, 9 needed. £1.50 delivered on eBay although i'll be picking mine up with washers & spring washers from a local engineer supplier
