Same here, just make sure theirs no cracks or leaks from the the fluid bottle to the radiator itself...

dont get a used one!! it will eventually crack. i still dont know why honda used a plastic core on it

an oem grade replacement can be found for around $130 (koyo for example). it won't last as long as a full aluminum, but it's half the price.

i bought a koyo because i dont plan on keeping the car much longer. installation is easy, only a few hours.
