This may be a stupid question. I want to repalce the fan on my cpu cooler with a blue led fan but I cannot find the bracket to mount the fan to the cooler. What do I need to look for?

Package comes with two sets of brackets. Ones are already in use with stock fan. Other pair is in package. You screw package to fan holes and then clip bracket to cooler.
