Is the radiator deployment still in the ISS (and Mir?) missions in SSM2007? If so it should maybe be removed? Good spot there ssjfb.
For now simply stow them
I believe (I will check though) that the rads work even if they are undeployed, but are way more efficient when deployed due to exposing both sides. Is that right?
Yes they work. The two aft radiator panels on each side also do work although they are not deployable. They are permanently connected to the payload bay doors structure.
But the radiator panels were modified by Lockheed Martin at the end of the 1990's in preparation for the ISS servicing missions. The modification basically was an incrase in thickness by adding aluminum doublers and silver-Teflon tape to protect the radiators against a substantial increase in particle dust, which the Shuttles are exposed to during ISS servicing missions.
I'm not sure but I think the modification also resulted in an increased effectiveness so that they don't have to be deployed all the time or not at all anymore. To not deploy them also increases the protection against particle dust I think.
The radiators also were not deployed during the last Hubble servicing mission obviously, STS-125, which was the first non-ISS servicing mission since STS-107:

The following is an image of STS-1. You can see a part of the aft port radiator panel on the lower right corner (also note the massive tile loss on the OMS pods by the way):
