Hi All,

This maybe a dumb question... but, for the aftermarket fan, how did you wire it up?

I have read about using a manual switch, but I would like it to switch by temp.

Cheers

Rob

The search function can be your friend.... http://www.e30zone.net/modules.php?name ... fan+wiring

Scroll down to the first post by ian332isport (the long post about 4th from bottom). Its a very detailed explanation of how to wire it up.

No worries 8)
The search function does take a little getting used to, but its pretty good once you figure it out.
