Will install tomorrow or Friday.

I decided to return the installation kit I had in favor of one that has an adjustable thermostat controller rather than a fixed temperature I had. Primary reason is that I don't want to bore a hole in the cooling system to install the sensor. The relay that is on the way uses a temp probe. Since the probes tend to be less accurate I ordered the adjustable version so I can control when I want the fan to engage.

Wiring is all in place, concealed and tested. Once the new relay arrives, it won't take much time to finish the project.

It may take longer to remove the mechanical fan as I choose not to purchase the clutch fan removal tool. I needed a 32mm wrench so rather than purchase the tool that I won't likely use again I bought the wrench for not that much more. I will try to remove the fan with the wrench and a long screwdriver to hold the pulley. If that doesn't work I will make what I need to keep the pulley from turning. The 32mm wrench arrived today.
