There are kits on ebay but first you'll want to measure you radiator corr and see if its the 28 or (I think) the 34. By corr I mean dont measure the tank on the side depending on which one you got you might be able to use a LS1 fan. Get it from a junk yard. Were did you find the harness is it nelson performance? By the way I thought the 05s had the efans.

If you want the thing to look stock after you install the electric fans just put your fan shroud back on. I did mine that way and the only reason you can tell I even have electric fans is the fact that you can hear them running. Also if you just wire them up on a toggle switch you can turn them on and off. You only need the fans while moving at low speeds. I shut mine off from 45mph and above and my temp never rises above normal operating temp.

really? how does it work do you send of your ecm? i guess i should wait till i figure out what i'm gonna do about a cam swap and have it tuned then? i'm just worried about something going wrong then i've got to send it back out, but i had been wondering about their tune, i've been on their site a little so is it still streetable? i know it sounds stupid but did it kill your milege? i tow with mine quite often. sorry to ask so many questions[8D]
