One of my radiator fans is sized up and I need to replace it. I'm not sure if the fans are the stock application but they are 12 inchers inside of a shroud - it looks like i'll need to replace both as they are 'one' unit.



I'm having trouble finding a slim shroud+fan and motor application online. I've asked my business partner Dr. Go Ogle many times but i'm not finding much.



Does anyone have anything in mind? It's a koyo radiator mounted in the stock location. I need 2 12inch fans with electric motors + shroud that are similar to the stock size.



Thanks

Unless your way far away from stock and into fabricating, stick with the stock fans IMO. They're plug & play without having to mess with relays, wiring for the aftermarket stuff, fitment and shrouding. And they do a good job just as they are...few people I know of have a need for anything more, with the exception of a few highly modded track cars.

You can post a "Want to buy " (WTB) here or on the big forum in the 3rd gen. section. I just picked up a clean low mileage set late last year after I accidently (and stupidly) messed up a couple of fan blades.....IIRC they were ~$75 shipped.
