Radiator fixings

Post by sirRhodes »

Hi guys this may sound a bit stupid but I'm confused about how the mk1b radiator is actually fixed in place, I know about the two brackets on top of the radiator but what else should be holding it in place?
I can't quite remember what I took off to get the radiator out and I'm not 100% sure that the two brackets will solely hold the radiator in place, I can only think that since the radiator was very rusty other brackets just got snapped when I started taking it out.
I know this makes me sound very stupid but I am just unsure.

There's 2 pins at the bottom that locate into 2 rubber grommets on bottom support.
You can just see them at the far side of the rad in this PIC
