may make the warm up a bit longer. the bolts may break when trying to undo them.that is what the bin was invented for unused/spare saxo parts lol.

You dont need it, it just helps the car warm up quicker when its really cold. Should be fine without it. If your set on having it though id just go to a scrappy, citroen will bend you over.

Why does it need replacing? whats up with it? if its rusted through by the bolt holes and rattling as usual just use bigger washers with the bolts.
