Is radiator easily available at auto parts store?

[Muddassir]

Is radiator easily available at auto parts store or do I need to go to a dealer for that. (My camry is 92 4 cylinder.. I doubt radiators would be different in Gen 3)

What is the expected price, and expected labour cost?

From my experience, when my radiator made a puddle of coolant under my car, my dad took my car to a friend and he bought the radiator for around $85 and labor was around $20... I don't know if that's what it would cost outside, though

check autozone for pricing, labor should be an easy DIY

edit: autozone has one for $151

replace your hoses while you're at it

labor is really easy, do it yourself. get the rad on ebay. any kind is fine.

Don't want to forget a new thermostat as well.

get it from ebay
about $80 to 100.

paid somebody $250 to replace sometime back for my gen3, at that time, i was a NOOB

suggest getting Koyo radiator online if not in a hurry, they are very nice made. I put a racing one in my integra, and a regular in my Camry, both working great. Don't forget to change upper and lower hose and thermostat as well. For the hoses and thermostat, I suggest get the OEM, aftermarket's quality can't compare.

I am pretty happy with the serivce from grip-force, highly recommard.

Thanx everyone for feedback. I dont have good experience of buying stuff from ebay, as Canada Customs can make anyone's life hell easily. It took me a month after payment to discover that the delivery can't be made, and is getting returned to the seller. (it was from michigan to toronto.. Now this one is in california. Can easily take 2 months.

ive never had a problem with buying something from canada, or shipping something to canada. and ebay is awesome. i had a koyo in my camry before too...
