Radiator install problem

I had to post this here even though I solved it, but felt you should know. I replaced the radiator in my wife's 96 Cavalier and it was a pita. I had to remove so much stuff from around it to get at it no wonder GM charges a arm and a leg to do it. Took me and my son 5 hours to do itThen the aftermarket radiator is 1/2 inch taller ( rockauto) so could not put back some rubber pieces where the latch for the hood goes. Anyway no more disappearing coolant for over a month now.
