Gj sam!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Thanks brah finally fixed after all these years

 

Turned out great!
you making me wanting to do this. ha

What kind of screw did you use? 8x18 1.5" ?

 

Looks more like a patch work instead of a fix. I believe the actual fix is to replace the broken pieces.

 

A fix is a fix, no matter how it is done.

 

Yeah do it man it's pretty simple

 

I guess that would differ for me because for me because I would go for perfection. Of course in my case, I never broken mine since I know how to change it properly.

 

Sorry Mr. Perfectionist but I didn't ask for your input so stop trolling.

 

Sorry, but that's not trolling.

 

glad u got them fix, but i didn't know you can use that big screw on? now it will never break again

 

Your perfectionism would cost you ~$700 for the new blower assembly. And the end result would be the same.

 

Yes end result is the same. I'm just saying (not literally) it like a patch workaround as to an actual replacement fix

Price, true. Alternatively if you go to a salvage yard, one can find one off a totaled IS for signficantly cheaper; similar saying to of the cracked NAV screen, instead of replacing the whole NAV unit, you find a salvaged screen and do it yourself fix.

 

nice job! an effective fix without putting a dent in your wallet.

sango you need to stop drinking that haterade, there's more than one way to skin a cat. don't post if you're just going to flame the thread.

 

good job, I end up just replacing the top half and it was tons of work.
