@paulie71962 - I’ve had good success with TheBookYard.

The last choice is bringing the system into Apple as they will have the real McCoy brand spanking new part😟 but it will cost you!

Apple finally has allowed access to their parts, the rub is only the M series and limited to only a few countries.

Hi dan - thanks for taking the time t come back to me- unfortunately the start is not available to me in UK

Yes, I checked them out too - currently my best alternative but I was really hoping to find a new fan so i can fix it once and be finished with it. Knowing my luck this fan might be just as noisy as my current one! Most of these donor machines get stripped because they got cooked ...because the fan was screwed
