There are some real good all aluminum ones out there that are
much better than the stock plastic side tanks.
I'd do it myself, radiators arn't difficult, and the dealer might
not warranty thier work for non OEM. If they demand OEM get the price from
buymopar.com or chryslerpartsdirect.com and get the dealer to price match.
(both of those are dealerships but they don't gouge on price)
