I've got them. I'd buy them again. Not cheap but a nice setup that works well. I've only been running them about 4 months but no problems so far.

I dont like how they attach or the cheap probes they use. Other than that not a bad kit. Very overpriced imo.

How have these been working for eveybody? I am looking at getting the Troyer Dual 16" setup for my 2010. Have there been any longe term durability issues with the materials or workmanship of the parts?

The "Dry Temp Probes" peaked my interest too, it seems like the would be less accurate/delayed when compared to something that measures the fluid temp itself. Has anybody changed or gotten around these?

Troyer controllers are junk and they know it, I had two friends that bought that kit for their F150s and they both failed.

There are better setups. The positive thing about the troyer kit is that everything is included. Anyone planning on changing over to e-fans, read everything you can. With the internet, that is not hard. Read about controller design, operation, reliability. Some controllers have wet or dry temperature probes. Some are simply on and off switches controlled by the temp probe or the ac clutch. Some have a high amp draw. Some controllers don't match the fan amp draw. Fuses and fusible links. Over ride switches. Anyone interested, read before you do or buy anything.

The best efan thread I have seen. It is not a kit and there are no shortcuts.
I researched this thread, asked questions. Even checked youtube to see what I could glean from there. While my setup is not exactly the same, the fans and their mounting are the same. I don't use the same fan controller. The painless didn't work out for me. Design problems and mine burned up.
I use a dc controller now (fk85)
