After reading about sevral having there radiator damage from small stones i want to make myself a raiator guard.
Is anyone able to get me the messurements on the radiator. Im at work on a offshore oilrig and would like o make it hile im here.
It would be far easier to just buy one. £50 brand new with a few quid postage to Norway. The guard is not something that you would want to risk coming loose just because you hadn't fabricated it correctly.
:agree:

+ £30 norwegian tax + £15 custom cost. It all adds up. And can fabricate it for £0 and even get payed while doing it. Cant be hard to fabricate.
Unless i can find someone in UK that i can transfer the money to thats willing to buy it for me and ship it over as a gift. Gifts under £100 is tax free.
I'll be happy to do that for you.

I agree, I got the R&G version and it fitted spot on.

+1, given the cost of a new radiator it is not worth taking a chance to save a few kroner.
.
- having installed a Beowulf guard on the GTR , can say that it would not be too difficult to fabricate one on your own (using aluminium mesh). The only fiddly bit would be mounting your creation (but nothing that a couple of zip-ties couldn't cure).
.
Having cable ties on something like that is so tacky, the lugs and fixing point are very tidy and discreet. (In my opinion).
