These are beefier radiators. I took a picture side by side and it's about 1.8x larger than the oem/Toyota radiator I had. But make no mistake. This is the exact model for your compatible Lexus/Toyota. And yes it will fit perfectly. Even though it's thicker. I have a 2008 Lexus ES350 and installation was pretty simple. I did the job in around 4 hours. But id like to give some advice to help speed up your installation. * The plastic air intake resting on the metal frame can be taken out. Remove the battery to create space. Then take out the air intake tube that extends well into the engine bay. This tube WILL get in the way of removing the radiator fans. * You need to take the fans out first before the radiator. If they still work just fine and the plastic isn't cracking. You can keep using them. There is an electrical connector on the right fan. It's pretty thick. You can press in the tab and slowly wiggle it out. Lastly there are 3 clips the top portion of the fan that you can easily pinch. Eventually you can free the fan. Then take the steps to remove the radiator. * Be VERY careful to not damage the condenser. It's the smaller looking metal part that looks like a radiator. You'll need to remove the two bolts on top and bottom connecting the radiator. The bottoms one need a 10mm wrench because a socket won't reach. And you can push the condenser back quite a ways without damaging it. Just don't over do it. * Use the two little rubber things on the bottom of the old radiator and place it onto the new one as the new radiator doesn't come with it. Finally and importantly: * INSPECT THE NEW RADIATOR. make sure there isn't any cracks. In my case. Mine was well packaged as pictured here. So mine wasnt damaged. It was mint. Also the old oem part lasted me 160,000 miles until the plastic finally cracked. Toyota/Denso is amazing ! Bonus: * USE TOYOTA ANTIFREEZE. Toyota makes the best antifreeze for your vehicle. It's a maintence item that doesnt need to be touched for 5 years or 100,000 miles. So do it right the first time. I've been using Toyota A/F for all my cars in the past and my current Lexus. It cost more than the store brands but trust me. You'll be happy you went the extra mile so your car goes the extra mile during hot summers that's going to push your cooling system to the limit. Good luck! Review: The radiator arrived in excellent condition, shiny and pristine. Since it’s a Denso product, I expected it to perform well. My only concern was the shipping, as it was sent through FedEx. After a week, I’m happy to report that the radiator is working perfectly, with no leaks or issues. I was really impressed with the quality, especially considering the price! ## Features - Radiator - Designed to meet or exceed original part specifications - Fits various makes and models - Carefully check vehicle fitment before purchase - International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004J316Y8 | | Brand | Denso | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (47) | | Date First Available | 14 Jan. 2011 | | Item Weight | 6.87 kg | | Item model number | 221-3158 | | Manufacturer | Denso | | Manufacturer part number | 221-3158 | | Model | Radiator, New OE Quality | | OEM Part Number | 221-3158 | | Position | Centre | ## Images ![Denso 221-3158 Radiator - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tocdQOPUL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***E on 2 September 2021* The radiator is a "tow pkg" or tow package model.
