bugger about the cutting of it. next time just heat the base of the springy part and bend it back a tad thats all it needs, cutting it is going over board.

i have 1 set of Ef fans and 1 set of Au fans left.

Oh well, I'll know next time. On the fans though, if you remember from the car show at Munmorah, my radiator doesn't have the bolt tabs to attach thermo's. I will have to wait a bit longer until the finances recover after xmas before I buy a replacement radiator to suit thermo's. I'll keep you posted though as I don't know how much longer I can put up with the noise. Drives me nuts!
I also just had to fork out $500 to get my rear suspension replaced, the old air system s**t itself and it was chewing through heaps of fuel trying to drag it's big a*** around. Had the suspension done by pedders on Saturday and can notice the difference already.

i didnt even cut mine at all. just pushed in fine :S
