Default Cooling Fan Replacement

Has anyone done a cooling fan replacement?

If so, please help me out. Links, photos, direction of any sort would be much appreciated!

Driver side fan is lose. I can wiggle it quite liberally. Motor works fine and it's still cooling the radiator but it's noisy as heck on the road the faster I go staring from 25 mph.

Looks easy enough, with some advice, to replace.

Put the car in service position and remove the harness and screws attaching it. Its very straight forward once in service position.

Ok great! Thank you for that quick follow up.

Now, all I need is a new fan.

I called dealer and they want almost $400 for a the fan/motor!

Anyone know how to avoid dealer pricing..?

Yes shop around online. ECS tuning has alot of replacement parts for these cars. Rock Auto may be an option. or a local import parts store can get lots of aftermarket stuff for much less.
