Advice on replacing bathroom exhaust fan

I’m working on swapping out an old exhaust fan with a new one, but I’d rather not replace the entire housing since the existing space measures 7.5” x 9” and I can’t find a matching full unit in stores. My plan is to just replace the motor and fan blades. The old setup has the fan mounted to a bracket (check the photos). How should I go about securing the new motor and blades to that existing bracket? Any practical tips would be a big help—thanks! submitted by /u/k1ng0ftac0s [link] [comments]
