Default Radiator fans? + Engine mounts?

Hey dudes.
I did have a look about but I couldnt find a post with the info I needed.

I have a 2002 mk2 VTR.
I use it as a daily. And its not modded or fked aboutwith in any way bar a KN panel filter.

The single radiator fan thats there is damaged but working, I'm planning to replace it and maybe the radiator.
radiator isn't damaged.
Now.
I have seen setups with twin fans but I cant seem to find them for sale. Or much info about them.

I could be useing the wrong search terms, or blind.
But in any case.

If some one could help me find a twin fan set up it would be appreciated. And even more so for information regarding the fitting of them.
Do they just plug and play?
Would i have to punch any holes?
Do i need to change the rad. Etc.

I'm also planning to replace all the engine mounts.
The whole block moves and shifts wayyyy to much right now
and it was one of the advisories on the MOT.
But been told theres different variations?
Is any one in a position to help me take an educated guess as to which ones they would be?

Many thanks for any help in advance.
Pesky.

I think engine mounts are the same for all engines, mine i replaced them a year ago, its made a massive difference, i had the engine knocking before under load. I bought new bolt also for the left side engine mount, make sure you buy a genuine bolt thats designed to take stress because it will break if you buy a cheap one<br><br>Sent from my SM-T560 using Tapatalk<br><br>

Links broken?

Thank you for your help though.
Had it apart last night and yeah. Ive ordered everything you've pictured.

Will the bolt thats all ready in there be ok to reuse?
Or is it just worth getting a new new one?

Also be sure to install the lower transmission mount correctly, because it is very easy to install backwards, i did that stupid mistake haha<br><br>Sent from my SM-T560 using Tapatalk<br><br>
