Surely should be loads of them on ebay with the seemingly weekly occurance of calibras being scrapped for their engines .

yep but there the weak point in ac system allegedly,as in front of rad and where mines gone is joint between steel base and aliminium core,so think its weak point in the design,also u cant test them till they fitted,so dont wanna waste time and money

You will be able to buy reconditioned ones from an aircon specialist Jambo. Will be as good as new.
