std mk4 rad

There is no Mk7 so not sure how you managed that one

Seriously a stock Mk4 rad should be quite up to the job at hand

with the temp gauge wire

use your original wire, which will be a brown/white trace

connect this up to one side of the temp sender in engine, the other wire goes to any earth point

or just put a cvh water temp sensor in it
