How do you mount it in the inner guard? Any major brackets/mods required. Barney has not enjoyed the last few days of sitting in traffic at 40°+. Do they make a noticeable difference? I have a couple of spare switches in the dash that would be handy to be able to flick on some extra air. |

You don't. It comes with a fitting kit that attaches it to the radiator through the core. |

I have a rover one in my car. Sits in the inner guard, bolts right in no mods to the car, and has a proper shroud for correct air flow. |

Hi Harley, Do you still have the old fan on the water pump as well as electric rover fan? I have been wondering if the rover fan would do enough on its own? |

The same way AWD mentioned...it did make it a bit more fidely for a while, but have now changed radiator and shroud, so no probs ![]() |

Real Minis in good condition don't need thermo fans... I'd add a heater core aux radiator instead. ![]() ![]() |
