Last replacement of my radiator I went junkyard, but I don't plan on driving the car another 6-8 years. Hopefully, I'll be able to replace it within a year or two. So spending $40 on an OEM junkyard one that should last was worth it to me. The junkyards around here make you pull it yourself, which is nice when it comes to diagnosing why the car is there (finding rear damage is nice because most of the engine stuff is in good shape...). Look for a radiator that appears clean/newer.

Most importantly, if you get a junkyard radiator, make sure its OEM.
