The various coolers aren't vehicle specific. The most efficient spot to mount a cooler is directly behind the vehicle grille, in front of the radiator and the A/C condenser. Unless you continually run your vehicle in a very cold environment, you'll need to measure the amount of available space you have in this area, and choose the largest cooler that will fit.
The # D13502, which measures 11 x 7-1/4 x 7/8 inch thick should work very well for you, assuming you have the available room. The plate-fin construction of the cooler offers better cooling while taking up less space than a tube-fin cooler would.
For a power steering cooler, use part # D13200. I've linked you to some articles with more information about fluid coolers.
