I've searched and looked around - a lot. I'm looking for opinions from people who have replaced their radiators and I'm looking for an OEM style copper/brass style.

Thanks though.

Seat Covers

I'm seeing original replacements for $530, vinyl for $400, and 'leather-like' for $300. Do the 'leather-like' ones look cheap? Why are they less expensive? Anyone have experience w/ them?
