Yes, in my 1995 LHD 9000, there is a relay "warehouse" located on top of the assembly that holds the fuses. It is below the passenger airbag which is now installed the glovebox used to be on the earlier models. I don't know if the fan relay is in there or not, the flasher relay is - which I know since I had to replace it a few years ago. The relay panel and fusebox in the newer models with airbags are pretty much the same configuration as the earlier, pre-airbag scenario was - e.g. on my '91 9kT, with the exception that they have been relocated down below the airbag/previous glovebox location instead of being up under the top of the dash inside the glovebox. It is a little more awkward to get to and you will have to fiddle with some of the carpeted trim pieces to get access to the securing screws, if I remember correctly, but not to difficult to deal with.
