    Heater Matrix

    quick question... is the radiator-looking thing that sits in front of the actual radiator a heater matrix? if so, is it a big deal if i do one of the two following things:
    1: chuck it out or;
    2: leave it in there even though its all bent up and dead looking, instead of replacing it

    this is assuming i dont care if i have heating in the car

    thanks, michael.

    The heater matrix is in the car under the dash. The core in front of your radiator would be your aircon condensor.
