I didn't chime in earlier because I hadn't driven it yet but I recently added the Vintage Air 19" brushless fan to my Bronco while changing a bunch of other stuff around. I've got a few hundred miles on it now and I can report that it keeps things cool during street driving in moderate traffic...
I've got one of those. Not really by choice but a non stock core support and adding AC meant that I ran out of room for the factory latch. If I had it to do over I wouldn't bother with the interior release cable and I would have just modified the latch to open by hand through the grille opening.
Thank you, I'm in Marietta GA. It has been a while since we had a good snow. This storm looks like it was good to you if you enjoy it.

Vintage Air makes a drop in brushless fan kit for Broncos. The actual fan is a Spal unit that I believe was used on modern Camaros and the controller is just a temp sensor that varies the fan speed based on the temperature it reads.

Do you have any ideas on what type of joint you would use to make it removable? I cut my cowl apart last weekend for an AC install and I'm one step behind Dylan now. I just can't grasp what we could use to make it removable and still seal well from the vent still in the hood.
I got my new soft top installed. I'm not sure I made the right choice on canvas color but it is a major improvement over my old flappy bikini top.

I have a mix of finishes in mine and I think it looks ok. The dash light bezels and factory switches are chrome, the steering wheel is polished aluminum along with the dash knobs and lots of other parts are milled aluminum.

They have a table that breaks out the features for each version.

I'm running the HDX and love it.
Here is another option for wiring clips if you are planning to drill holes to mount them. They come in mild steel or stainless.
