Manual fan control switch
I just finished replacing my radiator. I still need to get a different hose (thermostat to the radiator) since the new radiator has a smaller connection. The old radiator was just packed full of fuzz, dirt, bugs and small pebbles.
Anyway, I was going to add a couple of wires (or maybe just one) to ground the relays to turn on the fans manually. Where does one run the wires to get them into the interior? Where is a good place to mount the switch(es)? Pictures would be great!
Also, has anyone tried this?

Another question, how hard would it be to reprogram the ECM to turn the fans on sooner?

OK, read about it all the time so somebody had already done it. I was thinking about putting the switch in the console near the hatch release or maybe on the knee bolster.
Where can I find a place to run the wire through the firewall?
