As above. Any links would be useful and do I need a modified loom or anything?

Thanks

Using the E36 auxiliary fan from your donor car is pretty cheap! Cowling needs hacking about but it can be made to fit, is very effective and has 2-speed capability already wired in with a resistor to suit.

It's a heavy old thing though - so I swapped to a cheap 16" one from ebay. Slim and lightweight and it does do the job - it's just nowhere near as effective as the E36 one :)
