Fan Quick Mount Kit
Does anyone know where I could purchase a quick mount kit to attach a fan to the radiator . The attached picture shows what I am after. Europa do
sell them but they want £7 postage!!!

What's wrong with cable ties?!  After all, that's mainly what those things are.

Don't do it!! The cable ties are slightly serated and will cut through your radiator core....
Do it properly....

So just turn them round, so the flat bit is against the core.

I am in 100% agreement with Mr R here - I have posted my opinoions about these in the past so won't repeat them.
But I end with one question - have you ever seen these used on a production car?

Aside from cutting through the core do they not also crush the fins??
