Sukai94,

If you're just mounting your Koyo in the stock location, you don't need brackets. The Koyo doesn't fit in exactly the same position as the stock radiator, but you can simply drill holes in the existing brackets and have it sit just lower than the stock one does, which is more in line with the hole in the bumper. Pics are below.

Hopefully this helps. If you still need brackets, any OSH, Lowes, or Home Depot will have what you need.

Josh

I have those factory brackets if you need them. It took me a few weeks to hunt down when I was trying to do the same thing you are now. Most people toss them along with the stock rad. I paid $25 for them and would sell them to you for the same price if interested.
