They bolt just in front of the radiator, if i remember right you un bolt the radiator and move it backwards to the other holes in the chassis legs which are already there and the intercooler bolts into the original radiator ones. You will need another 2x radiator bolts

Might be in touch. How much to post up to near aberdeen?
Phoned the guy from radtec and he said you need 2 x Radiator Mounting kits from ford to fit.
Can you supply those ? Do i definately need them?
