Thanks Simon & Dave,

Managed to get an hour today to get the bumper off.

Looks like a 3 speed fan.

Question is, should I repair or replace?
If I replace should I fit 3 speed or 2 speed?

I could also do with a bit of a guide on removal.
I've taken off the bumper and inner alloy bumper.
I've removed the fan blades from the moulding.

What else do I need to remove to get the fan out?

Also a couple of other points:
1... The metal hose fron the air intake has com adrift, looks like it may be a b***ch to refit, not a lot of free movement and material is quite stiff, are there replacements available?
2... a loop of what looks like black 10mm Pipe comes across the lower part of the rad from the nearside, loops around and returns, the offside bracket is broken so the pipe wobbles about a bit, is this an issue and is the bracket available to replace?
3... The foam liner attached to the inside of the bumper looks a bit chewed up and held together with tape, is this replaceable?
4.. Another smaller issue, the headlights have water ingress whenever and however I wash the car, it sorts itself out after a few days, but is there a remedy for this?
5.. Whilst all this is off, what else should I do. Any upgrades or bits I should replace, I've already got new xenons and halos from Rick.

Sorry for all the extra questions, but may as well get things done whilst the bumpers off.

Phil
