good source for what??? I have the same truck and i used a relay that was hot from the battery all the time and ran the swith to turn them on on the accessory fuse so that they could only be turned on when the igniton was on.

Yeah I was going to do it like that too but heres the thing.. I got a relay kit that has the relay and temperature probe.. Mine kicks on at 185 and shuts of at 160.. I just got them done today.. I was going to repost and say that I found a good plug in source.. well I just ran back and spliced into the Cig lighter wire.. That way its a key on 12 volt and theres nothing to take power away from but the lighter.. they work nice. I got a dual fan setup. the harness kit only runs about 30 bucks.

not bad for the harness kit. thought about getting one but decided not too. Im also running duel fans not sure what CFM though. They do keep it cool when its hot but that could be also the really small radiators that the d21's have
