get to B&Q or somewhere and buy some metal strips, make a bracket to suit, must be a whole half an hour to make something to suit.

How about phoning autospecialists (the first thing i would do anyway)......always been a really helpful bunch when i've used them in the past, and if they've made a mistake i'm sure they'll sort you out asap

Mine has got a 'L' bracke at the bottom that bolts to the front cross member and a mount for the top that bolts to the top of the rad (where the standerd intercooler would have bolted on and it goes into the origional top mounting hole) I also have an airtec turbo cooler fitted, feel free to PM me if you need any advice or pics to help.
