[s-cars] Heater Core R&R - flap positioning and parts suggestions?

[Ian Duff]

I'm sure Meyle must make acceptable quality parts for some car, but I have
yet to see any.

I've come to the conclusion that I'll only use Meyle if I'm in a jam, and
don't mind replacing it soon with a real part.

Hi - just took out the heater core from my wife's 95.5 Avant S6.

Wasn't as horrible a procedure as I'd expected  - used this pdf:
http://12v.org/urs/C4UrSHeaterCoreReplacementDIY.pdf

based on kinderutz procedure here:

Clearly didn't read to the bottom as I was so excited to get the assembly
out of the car in under 1.5hrs - so split the assembly and took out 2 of
the flaps :\

Is there a procedure for aligning the flaps when I go to put these
back-together?

I'm intending on ordering the parts from genuineaudiparts.com - but the
fan is $222.46 - is this the best place to get the blower fan? I've seen
Meyle at half the cost - but would rather not have to do this again, and
$100 seems like a worthwhile amount if there is a fundamental difference
between the quality of the products...

TIA!
