Advance auto shows a separate radiator as well, but my haynes manual
says that it's one unit. Two things about this are
that the pictures on Advance/A'zone/Rock Auto are not always
accureate. Neither is Haynes, and my manual references
3 separate cars including the Malibu which is not the same platform.
Studying it carefully from outside it looks almost
inseparable.
