How to remove Cooler Master Hyper 212 fan bracket?

[snowman3]

I'm trying to replace the stock fan on my Cooler Master Hyper 212, but I can't figure out how to remove the mounting bracket on the stock fan so I can put it on the replacement.

Has anyone here done this before? I'd appreciate any help.

Err? It's just a matter of using a screwdriver to remove the bracket as I recall. If there's something in the way (foam padding or somesuch) just carefully peel it off.

i've done that lot of times, you have to remove carefully the anti vibration pad, and unscrew all four screws and done.. you can check the second bracket to mount the second fan to figure how its assembled..

Peel off the padding and the screws are underneath. IIRC, they are standard fan screws. Just be careful remounting it as the bracket will crack if you screw down too hard.
