The ebay one I got was like $230...... still cheaper to get it all yourself, but if you're lazy like me, the ebay kit rocks because it takes all of an hour to install.

Well at the end of the day you get what you pay for. I have the BPT kit and havent looked back. Reliable and professional, turn the key and drive off without a worry

No pulleys are needed to be changed.

The ebay kit includes fans and complete wiring and temp switch. you might want to get a cooler thermostat as well. I have fitted an ebay kit, and it worked great.

The BPT wiring kit is VERY good. The problem i had was there was too much involved in fitting the temp switch. I think for the cost, everthing should just fit, without modification. In the end, i returned it, and went the ebay wiring harness.

Yeh it was the BPT one i was thinking of but I've since remembered emailing them about it
and they told me the thermo fans were NOT included. so screw that i think.

the ebay kits seem like the right price unfortunately I can't find any listed at the moment,

BLC / OED666 do you know the name of the seller on ebay you bought the kit from?
EdFairmontGhia what pulleys?? no pulleys are required.

I was very dissappointed the fact the BPT switch didnt fit. Otherwise it was going to be the ducks guts... if a relay was cactus, you had fans all the time, which is a good idea incase something fails.

i think the sellers id is: iquay

i had a little search in my ebay account, and this is the one that looks familiar. i am not sure if he has anymore kits though. i will have a look through my emails tonight (hopefully i remember) and i can confirm the seller id.

I didnt bother with a kit for my thermos. Just buy the parts yourself and wire it up yourself, its not very hard. I'll try to get a full list and prices tonight.

Saying this tho if the ebay kit is $230 for everything inc. the fans then thats a pretty good price. Although my set up cost about $180ish, I got the fans really cheap, $77!

if you have the understanding of relays etc then its not too hard. i didnt have time, or could be bothered to get my little brothers car ready a few days before my wedding, so i just bought one for him. lucky it turned up in time.

Meh, I still dont understand how relays work! LOL. I just followed a wiring diagram and hook the wires up to the correct prong on the relays.
