Can I put a radiator from a 2005 Cadillac deville on a 2004 Cadillac deville?
What is your question?
My old radiator cracked and was leaking I just picked up a used but new to me radiator from the pick a part and the new radiator has 2 extra holes on one side for the transmission fluid and the old one doesn’t.. can I still use this radiator on my 2004 deville because it doesn’t have the proper hook ups for the new radiator? Can I just plug the holes and use it like the old radiator?! I already bought it from the pick a part and can’t return it
What makes this problem better or worse?
It had a leak aand was overheating and it thought that 2000-2005 deville parts were interchangeable

Hello, there was a standard duty and a regular duty radiator from the same vehicle. I do not know that they are interchangeable because each is looking for its specific hook ups for the purpose it was designed for.
Will it mount? Yes. Can you plug holes? I really would not. It does not appear to be a proper match and you risk engine damage and overheating by putting the incorrect application part into the vehicle, honestly.
