Questions about radiator and fan install

Well since my fan pretty much exploded somehow and put some holes in the radiator I bought a Koyo replacement radiator and a 12" slim line fan, but I've never installed an aftermarket fan before so I had a couple questions about mounting...

1) How do I actually mount the fan to the new radiator? I got the fan today but the radiator's coming monday, but when I put the brackets on the fan they didn't line up anywhere near the stock mounting holes, and the lower mounts didn't reach the bottem of the stock radiator when the top mounts were at the top of it. I've heard of ppl using zip-ties and going through the brackets on the fan and through the coolant passages on the radiator, but wouldn't that harm the radiator? Those passages aren't very strong and the fan does have some weight to it.

2) Where do I mount the fan controller, since it was mounted to the stock fan?

Thanks
