If your auto and go with an aftermarket radiator then you will have to run a trans cooler as well. So if you don't want to deal with all of that then just get an OEM replacement from your local auto store.

Im sure for a few bucks more you could get the cheapest mishimoto and it would work great.

Because the auto transmission cooler is integrated into the radiator. Aftermarket radiators dont have this

If you have a car equipped with an automatic the trans cooler is integrated into the factory radiator. If your car is manual then you don't have to worry about this.
