Electric fan question- how to reverse motor.

Never mind, the email link was going to my spam which I just remembered could happen. I tried to delete this thread but for some reason you cannot delete an original post. Now I should be able to figure everything out with the instructions which I can now download.

So, what is really good is that I remembered to check for the direction of the fan blades before installing the fans. However, I was not really comfortable drilling holes in my car and making custom brackets until I new for sure that these fans were going to work. As it turns out, all you have to do to make the motor spin the opposite way is hook up the wires to the motor the opposite way thereby changing the polarity of the motor.

Swap polarity and flip the fan blade over.

Right, you can never be too careful when dealing with something like this. I checked, then double checked to make sure that I did everything right. I was really freaking out though when I did not see a switch to reverse the direction of the motor. I thought I somehow got screwed be incorrect information. I have already invested 7 hours and have another 5 more hours to go just to mount these things.
