LOL, glad you found them. I get (unreasonably) frustrated when people don't read through old posts to solve their current problems, thinking they are the first to have that particular malady. Almost everything I have problems with on my vehicles has been fixed with help from the archives.
Can't go wrong with Toyota parts, I have yet to find any aftermarket parts that were better than OEM. As a side note, are you aware you can 'rebuild' your old Toyota fan clutch? The dealer (and therefore CDan, I'm sure) sells the silicone that 'powers' the clutch. Replace it and you're almost good-as-new. Almost, because unfortunately they don't offer the seal that holds the silicone in. Also, apparently there's some debate on whether the spring which activates the clutch fatigues. I haven't tried to rebuild mine yet so I don't know if there's a way to remedy a leaking seal or a fatigued spring. I did buy the silicone, which comes in 2 small tubes and IIRC they cost around $15. After I bought it, I tested the fan clutches (per some old post here) and they are fine, so I'm saving the silicone for experimenting at a later date.
