I need to know what parts I need to buy to fix my car listed above touring edition.
It is a non turbo car. I have to replace the radiator in my car because I had someone pull it up a hill and when they hooked the chain to it and pulled it there was two round black rubber plugs laying on the ground and some brownish looking fluid all over the ground and it started to overheat someone said there was 2 big holes in the bottom of my radiator. I am going to buy the parts I need new today but I need to know exactly what all parts I have to buy to fix it right? What kind of radiator exactly should I buy for that car and is it a 1 row or 2 row radiator? Also do I need to buy any of the hoses that goes to the radiator? I need to know what those 2 round black rubber plugs was called to so I can buy new ones because my 2 that was laying on the ground had a little broken plastic piece broke off of them. Also my car started to overheat about a month ago and I had someone to check it and they said it was the fan not coming on so they wired the fan straight up to my fuse box and when I turn my keys on the fan stays on the whole time. What do I need to buy to fix my fan to where I wont need it wired up to my fuse box too? And what kind of new coolant do I buy for my car to put back in it when I replace the new radiator and how many jugs will I need? Also what kind of transmission fluid will I need and how many of those?

Good morning,

Can you post a picture of the rubber parts you are looking at?

I am worried about more damage from the pulling.

Yes, the radiator, upper and lower hose, coolant.

As far as the type of radiator, there is only 1 type. I attached the different brands for you to view.
