Nissens is good, put a long zip tie around the upper plug on the passenger side above the transmission fluid return, the plugs can push out.
Pros: good quality
Cons: plugs can push out

The stock piece lasts well over a decade in my experience. That's more than enough for me for a part that fits and functions perfectly.

I recently did a timing belt job on my is300 and now the car feels weird. I replaced oe denso radiator. The first startup was very rough. After some tinkering with the car by letting it idle for a while, reving it slightly, the car seems to be alright with no check engine light or any missfire codes. However I do feel like the engine vibrates just ever so slightly more than it used to. A barely noticeable difference but I feel like something is not right. The car now also has weird cold starts. The engine only revs up to a 1000rpm and then goes down from there, where it usually would rev up to 1500-1800rpm on cold starts.
Cons: engine vibrates, weird cold starts

Bought it for my coyote swapped F100 and there was a hole in it from the start. Rewelded the whole thing because wasn’t worth the return when I can just do it myself. Welds just looked like someone just started child labor and it was their first day on the job. Wouldn’t buy one again if I had too.
Cons: hole from start, poor weld quality, not worth return

Ford
The OEM rad in my ‘13 developed a crack when the car was like 4 years old.
Cons: developed crack, short lifespan
