Those are OE replacement radiators, not the larger rads


$200 isn't much unfortunately, I would honestly save it for something you really want

Actually, its really amazing, if you want to point out stars its very easy because you can actually see the green beam going all the way to the star at night. Can burn stuff freak people out.

I have a cheap $20 red laser pointer, and this thing is like a lighthouse in comparison.

My friend's wife just got carjacked. I say you spend the $200 on a Bersa Thunder .380 -- unless you live in one of those girly states that think that guns are a bad thing.
