Here is a few pics of what Iv done so far.

Here is one of the fans after triming. Notice the plug on the driver side of the fan is 180 degree of the factory position but still utilizes the factory mount. I will zip tie the other clip in place after the wiring is done. I wasnt able to flip this clip like the other one becouse the fan shroud got in the way.

I wasnt very happy about having to loose the whole passenger side of the shroud but it was the only way I could get it in there. Im not proud of the triming but it got the job done.

Here is a picture of my fuse box under the hood. Notice the plug pre wired for fog lights and the two empty spaces. The top one was for ABS fuses. Im going to insert two 30 amp relays into these holes.

My finale plan is to do the following.

Insert two 30 amp relays that are from a 300zx that I have just rotting to death in storage, into the two empty spaces in my fuse box.

Im going to tap into both the ecu signal wires BEFORE they get to the fuse box and run the new taps to the new high and low relays. Im going to send signal from a 12v power source and ignition to the relay then the out is to the signal wires on the fans.

Now my last question is Where do I put the fuse? I was thinking that I might try two 20 amp fuses. One on each wire after the tap before the fuse box but then if something happens at the fan it will kill the relay beofre it hits the fuse right? So the fuse needs to be after the relay before the fans on the signal wires right? Do I need to worry about adding fuses where I tap into the 12v and ign power?

Thanks again
