Mounting slim line fans? - Mitch - 09-07-2013

My d turbo has got a/c and the fans have a complete mind of there own, recently got a new valeo rad and sacked the original fans off, I've been running without a fan for a while now, I have a slimline 12" fan which I would like to use, I can wire it in with a relay and that but I'm unsure off how to mount it to the rad, if it was still my old rad I'd off prob of just stuck some cables ties through it and hoped for the best! But don't really fancy damaging the new one, any help appreciated Smile

Cable ties are fine mate, don't worry about damaging the rad

Okay cheers, would you go through the fins or the core itself?


RE: Mounting slim line fans? - cwspellowe - 09-07-2013

Push it between the fins and it'll pop out the other side, then tie it up
