Easy swap yes. Only pain in the arse is taking off existing brackets and getting them fitted again. What i plan to do is grind off 4nr brackets which was used for old radiator and a/c, use the a/c brackets. Hoses are exact same mate.
 
looking very nice mate, planning on re-doing my underseal before christmas. i'm pretty sure i've seen this in dundee too
