Default Radiator Help

Hey guys i'm pretty sure my radiator is spent - its leaking out the sides of the top - not bad yet but its getting there- called the dealer and they want 506 for a new radiator! .. holy balls so i think i'm going to go to autozone for something like this - anybody have any suggestions wehre i can pick up a good quality radiator for a decent price? Is there any downside to getting one other than from the dealer? I like to keep all my parts honda but screw this .. thanks in advance

k found an oem knockoff replacement alternator at autozone or checker for about the same price ($180) with a lifetime warranty on them . .so when the damn plastic top cracks again it'll be covered - its a one row etc. . is this going to be a lot different than my stock one? - trying to get this thing going today .. thnx

well i think i answered my own question - the guys on TI.com recommend radiators.com but my lifetime one at checker will do plus today is my only day off in weeks . .so i can't wait till friday and if i do i can't put it in on friday (when radiators.com will come) so yeah i'm spending 50 extra bucks but i gain a lot of convienence with it .. later

sorry no one answered man, yea, sounds worthy, with warr. but if you had more time i would recomend awaiting a steel capped rad. i bought a replacment from a rad. shop locally for around 2-300.00 but it has steel tanks, and should never have a prob. again, good luck
