Hey, so I have a leak in my radiator somewhere on the grill, not the infamous hairline crack around the radiator cap. I own an automatic 1993 Protege DX DOHC. I've been searching sites for the cheapest radiator other than ebay but I'm confused as to which one will fit without any problems. I've done some searching and found that all metal radiators are better than the plastic one. Please tell me which one should fit and if installing it would be difficult or not.


1. All Metal Radiator (http://radiatorexpress.com/product.asp?part=1993+MAZDA+PROTEGE+DX+%2D+1%2E8+l iter+L4+RADIATOR+Name+Brand+2%2DRow+All+Metal+Upgr ade+for+Non%2DTurbo&part_id=39085&aaia_id=1191822)
