As it's spade connectors, makes for a pretty easy wiring job.
Either cut and shut a pigtail cut from your old fan, or from a wreckers yard (anything Audi (or VW?) from that era has the same style connectors) or Cut the plug off one end (fan is most appropriate) and put some standard crimp type spade connectors on the ends and plug in manually (I use brass spade connectors with a proper crimping tool, but the common red or blue crush type will work ok) or Make a short double-ended female piggy-back lead and leave both plugs intact.

All features as the '01, with the 'S' mode auto shifter. Dodgey rear tint (need to find a way to get rid of that). Family: 2009 Volvo XC90 V8 R Design - has a louder more obnoxious exhaust than the S8, sounds great! Love this thing - Q7 was double the price, and certainly not double the car!

 Doing it that way also enables you to easily test the replacement and quickly resolve incorrect polarity.  (I believe the D2 uses 6.3mm blades and the D3 4.8mm, but 6.3mm fit into both the D2 and D3 connectors.)
