During my headlight removal (more on that later), I discovered one of the two electric fans mounted to the radiator (passenger side) was mostly for the air conditioning, so I didn't think I needed it any more. This discovery came about due to two large relays that were mounted to the headlight. It took a pretty deep dive into the
wiring diagram to figure everything out.

Mystery Relays |
Here's the fan from below. I also removed two of the elbows you can see.

I hope you appreciate this photo, because getting below the car is not a trivial task. |
Here's what I pulled out. Weight savings: 3 lb, 1.7 oz.
I had to disconnect the coolant hose and remove the intake tube to get the fan out.
And here is the final product.
