[QUOTE=11Thumper;1090033]Courtesy Nissan (online) sells a new radiator for about $750 plus shipping. If you have a hole that means you've already released AC chemicals into the atmosphere, so you're probably ok just removing everything yourself.

$750 for a radiator, $20 for engine coolant, $40 for AC chemicals, $7 for a 6-pack of beer and an afternoon of fun is all you really need.

Knock this puppy out on your own. It's easy too!

It's not that easy. The system must be evacuated using an evacuation pump that also has an inline drier on it to remove any moister that may now be in the system due to the fact that it is now open to the atmosphere. You can do the replacing of the radiator but as far as the evacuating and charging of the system, I would take it to a professional. You don't want to over charge and blow the compressor. JMO
