    Are the side hinges for a Eurovan radiator available??

    Like the title says, I need the plastic hinges that allow the radiator to tilt forward. They're all broken on the van I bought.
    Did some searching but couldn't come up with anything...
    Who sells them?
    Any thoughts?

    Thanks!

    Stealership wanted $25 each for the upper brackets
    Part #'s 701 121 633 B and 701 121 634 A
    and $16 each for the dogbone looking things.
    Part # 701 121 575
    To much!

    So I found this place
    http://www.worldimpex.com/
    and they had the mounts for $12.69 each. But not the dog bone looking ones. Shipping was a bit steep from Maryland at $13.85 for two little plastic pieces. But I still saved $11 over what the dealer wanted.

    As it turns out I have 3 of the dog bone looking ones, so I just need one more.
    Anyone have a single used one????

    I probably have one. I'll know in a couple days. I'm just about to replace my rad with one from a parts van and a couple of these clips came with it. But how do you un-do these pesky things? It looks like I should just be able to hold the tab out of the way with a small screw driver but I'm stumped and frustrated. Thanks.

    You have to spin them to a certain position I discovered. Then with the tab bent out they come right off.
    Please lmk!
