No, you'll need a specific VIS rad unfortunately with the only source being NRF ( part no 58123).

To compound your misery you'll need to get (and fit) an M22 blanking plug and make a smaller blank for the top "extra" outlet that rad has. Pretty straightforward job though once you've got the bits.

You can get one from EBay for circa £60, Valeo last made them 2009 and when I spoke to a rad recon place they didn't think they could get the core to rebuild my Valeo one.

Good luck

I got mine from here for the VIS. The top outlet I blanked with a nice bit of tubing. Looks fine.

2 year guarantee also !

I've used them a few times, and all good so far.

PS, the rad fit both early NAs and the VIS. So I don't think there is a VIS specific rad as such now.

Gripped, you are right as should have typed non turbo rather than VIS. Either way a turbo rad isn't the right one for the OP.


If all else fails read the instructions

Yep, the Turbo one is more pricey too if IIRC.

At least there are some benefits of owning an NA laugh
