Yes I did in my old car a while back there one on here, but it's simple enough, just get the screw driver out and make sure you wire it the correct way round

The cool box removed easily by removing the console lid, removing the 2 torx screws in the 2 top front corners behind the console trim, disconnecting the plug and pulling up.
You then remove the 4 screws that hold the fan on to reveal a big heat sink. There are then 2 screws that you remove to take the heat sink off. Everything from here in is covered in a layer of thermal grease so don't do it on SWMBO's best tablecloth unless you like living dangerously Twisted Evil .
Behind the heat sink is the ceramic square and another small heat sink (that is fixed to the body of cool box from the inside).
I found that there were 2 possible problems. The ceramic device or what I believe to be a thermostat on top of the small heat sink. Looking at the way everything is connected if the fan runs the problem is the creamic device if not then the thermostat.
Thanks for that, my fan runs its just getting the correct parts as all the ones I have seen on ebay have fins where the ones on the car are a square block screwed with four screws to the body of the cooler its this I cant findRange Rover Westminster 4.4 TDV8 what a car

Hi guys,
Do you have a thermostat specification for the peltier? My fan is not running
