Replacing Radiator Mounts.

The 17 year old rubber mounts for the radiator in my Honda civic 1999 are overdue for replacement. Here is how I performed this job.

Removing the Upper Bracket and Bottom Mounts.

A 10mm bolt holds the upper bracket and it has a single rubber mount. There are 2 bottom mounts that needed to be pried off due to the adhesion of the rubber to the radiator over time.

See how busted up the oem mounts look? The new ones are ready for installation!

Installing the New Mounts.

The old upper mount rubber needed to be pried out. The new one was popped in and the 2 bottom ones easily installed.

Now the radiator has new mounts and ready for service!
