Hi Gary,
Sorry - I went back and found my receipt - it was actually ~$138
plus shipping.
I installed it Wednesday. - it fits perfectly, exactly like the
Behr with the AT cooling line connections in the right place and the
fittings that hold the rad in place were also all in the right places.
It was packed very strongly and even the box suffered no damage from FedEx.
So, we're back on the road again. ;-) I did a bit of research on
the Nissens brand since I had never heard of them and they weren't OE
suppliers. Very few people mentioned problems. OTOH, I needed a new
upper rad hose and picked one up at AutoZone and the fit was a little on
the short side. I'll replace it soon.... My wife is super happy to
have her car back with the AC working and no worries for the cooling
system.

Hi Gary -
IIRC (can't locate my receipt at the moment) it was around $92 plus
$51 for expedited "2 Business Day" shipping. I placed the order Saturday
evening and was informed today around 10:30 that I could pick it up down
the street. They offer a service where I can have it delivered to
another address so I had it dropped (figuratively) at a local FedEx
office. I was running a little experiment to see when they deliver to
that office Vs my home. They normally deliver to my home around noon so
there is little reason to drop packages at that office. I was hoping
they'd get to the office at 6am or so then I'd go get it and get a jump
start. . But I may as well have them bring stuff to the house.
