Default Pattern parts

I need a new heater Matrix on the escort after one of the pipes snapped off Yesterday, would you guys buy Pattern?

IE: This?

I'd rather not buy second hand, and I cant imagine for a minute they'd be that sort of price from Fords....

(Ps I'm not one of these IT HAS TO BE GENUINE FORD geeks either! Just after an opinion thats all).

Deffo buy that rather than Frauds.
I know someone who bought a radiator from AARONs and was very happy with the product and price.

Seems a good price, just worried as it is CHEAP (false economy and all that! )

the part number : 85GG 18B539 CB tells you thats ist not escort cossie specific otherwise it would start V92, the 85 start says that it was first used on a vehicle from 1985, so is probebly the same as a normal mk4 escort ....

WOuld that be a problem then Dave?

Have they tried to use the correct Ford coding on these then? Would that code be specific to their products?

88gg sounds more like a granada number, the escort matrix if i remember correctly is the same as one of the sierras, about £80 + vat from Ford.

Well the number matches what's on the heater matrix (looks like a genuine Ford part).
