I recently installed the SPAL 1328 fans and shroud from JDL. In my communications before purchasing they told me via email "Our SPAL Fans and fan shroud do require splicing into the OEM harnesses but it's super easy as they are just a simple positive negative circuit. The OEM electrical system handles them just fine but you could always run direct power with your own wired relay too if you chose to"
The OEM fans each have a connector you can steal if you don't intend to re-use or sell them. One fan has the connector and wires, the other fan I took apart and removed the connector. The one with wires is easy enough to snip and splice onto one fan. The other one I added slightly oversized pins to the SPAL wires and filed them down until it was a snug fit in the connector then heat shrink around it to secure everything.
Both kick on just fine and have had no issues without using a relay.
I'll try and get some pictures of how I did it.
