you need to remove the front bumper iirc, then take off the fan housing then the fan itself. long job to do something little, but i must say that it does look good if done right :y:

Some came with a single slimline fan that sits behind the radiator. If yours is how you described sounds like someone has bodged it on from a vtr or 1.4. All other vts' and gti's to my knowledge all came with a twin housing set up but only one fan unless it was from europe then it comes with two fans as one is for aircon
