Might be a strange request but there is a good reason for this :oops:

Im looking for any pics of the back of cooling fans and radiators that folk may have sitting about. I need to be able to see the mounting bolt hole pattern. Please note if its UKDM or JDM. Just looking at the cooling fan (plastic housing) and not the aircon fan(metal housing).

Any pics would be much appreciated.

Cheers :)

perfect Nathan - thats exactly what i was looking for.
seems i swapped a ukdm rad and fan into my jdm lude and thats why rad i bought doesnt fit - its a jdm one and ive got ukdm fan whcih has different mounting hole pattern.

so...im looking for the fan as shown in the 3rd last pic that Nathan has photographed in the above post.

this will work out cheaper in the long run as most cheap £30 ebay rads fit the jdm and not the ukdm - also the jdm rad is slightly larger so has a tiny bit more cooling capacity
at least thats what i think

I believe I still have both the fans if you want them or just the one for the cost of postage? Only trouble is I've cut the connector plugs off for my aftermarket fans, so you'd need to solder/splice your old connector onto it.

cheers for the offer Nathan i might take u up on that :) - ive got a few ukdm fans that i can cut the plug off and splice on - but id be best to check if i can pick one up locally first due to the fact that coolant is spraying out my rad onto my alternator and manifold which is not cool :lol: so needs sorted asap :roll:

Thanks Michael but that looks like a ukdm fan - on a rad for an auto - can be used on a manual as well.

Mind u is the rad in good condition at the front - the back looks clean???
Might just take that off you and get it fitted tomorrow if your about :)

hmmm difficult to tell if its got the right mount spacing on the locating pins - top pins look right - should be 625mm apart - cant tell if the bottom pins are right from the photo they should be 620mm apart - will try and get out to see it tomorrow early avo
