might be this one, not the cheapest but looks like it's near enough right...
best thing to do is to go to a motor factors and get a part number, look that up and find a good deal (if the motorfactors aren't cheap anyways)

Not sure if auto's have a bigger rad?
But the main thing is the bottom hose connection. Yours should be the newer style push fit type. The older style radiators come with a big spring clamp thing (sure it's got a proper name lol) and they aren't interchangeable without changing the hose as well.

The bottom hose has a circli around the plastic header and the rubber hose is inserted into it.
