Excellent thread - Thank you.

Can you provide specs of the parts for people who want to copy you, prices and suppliers, or am I being cheeky?

Rather than take up more bandwidth (this has already been posted several times in other threads), just hit my link and go to the Cooler install album. All the info and prices are there..

Thanks for the DIY and for the reply. With this as a tool, I have some guidance should I need to install it myself (pending a potential Nissan fix).
