well, depends on what audi it is, but possibilities are that its the same
principle. Of course the outlets might (or rather will) be in a different
place and the size will be different. Just take a measuring tape to it. IMHO
the alu radiators are not bad but I don't find them that smashing,
considering that most rabbit engiones die from a broken headgasket (which
might be related to the thermostatic fan switch failing btw, so check that
out if you want to use an electric fan, and boy that switch is exensive as
well)
