What should I check before buying and during installation?

Confirm the unit matches your vehicle by entering the exact make, model, year, and trim into the garage or fitment tool.

During installation, ensure the mounting points and electrical connector seat firmly and that the fan spins freely without obstruction.

• Use the vehicle selection tool to verify fitment
• Compare electrical connector and mounting holes before removal
• Test fan motor and wiring after installation for proper operation
