On ebay you can get one for about 35quid delivered. I'm not sure of the quality, though they look alright..

£26 buy it now delivered! i bought on its made by Hella so a good make. only problem with it was 1 of the slots for the brackets was in the wrong spot, just had to cut out a bit of plastic with a knife and it went right in.

recommended! :)

the 2 big rad hoses from block to rad, 8v rad is a little longer. the shroud is the bit the fan is attached to, though could prob make up 2 brackets to make it fit. i may have these bits in stock? or rob em all off mk2 1.8 8v in scrappy
