The fan carparts4less sent me was the wrong type - is this linked to cars having AC or something different?

Does anyone have a good aftermarket fan source for the right version? I had entered my plate in as well and they only had the one version.

RealOEM gives 64111370930 and 64111373766 - I believe mine is the former (there is a double "row" and single "row" version it sems).

And the M52 swap makes it a real pig to get to....

Does the new one fit inside the plastic housings? I'm certain when I removed mine it was the double one. I had four plastic housings to remove

I've checked real oem and it says that one type is for cars that have a micro filter

Correct.
I just had to replace mine a few weeks ago and it was the same as the RH version in the first pic.
(2x single inlet forward curve impellers to handle the higher back pressure of the heater coil and evaporator)
