putting the fan in front is stupid.. not because you need to make it spin the other way, also you would see it from the front of the car ..

Fan is a good idea. Clears up space.

Any idea' HOW easy it is to make it spin the other way.... 5 min max including soldeirng and heat shirking joints.

I ran my wires in side the frame under the fenders.

Then I split the car harness up and pulled what was needed for the engine behind the rear mount and its just laying on the rear cross member as of know.



Mind you that engine and such is covered in dust right now.

Right now its just sitting in the floor. I'm thinking about mounting it and the ac controls in the glove box. I'm kind of looking for ideas myself on where to put it. But there were a LOT of wires to extend.

I mounted mine on the floor right above the ECU.
It's a bit awkward, but there's room enough to open and close the lid, and reach in there for a fuse.
In the 4 years I've owned my car I've rarely been in there but to pull the hazard fuse.

for the fan, use the ECU pin trick, pull the wires from the plug and flip them, no soldering needed.

also, the condenser (metal) fan fits very well in front of the rad.
