+1 on that. You can download the hardware maintenance manual from the Lenovo support site and probably find a fan on eBay.
I replaced wireless card in my T40 that way, no big deal. (Also did the keyboard on my daughter's Gateway laptop in the same manner - get hardware manual, order keyboard, yadda , yadda) At least get the hardware maintenance manual (freebie) and look it over. If it looks too daunting, take it somewhere..
