Default C5 cooling fan override

Do you guys know if anyone sells a cooling fan over ride kit for my 2003 vette, I noticed that West Coast Corvette has them for the C6 vettes. I would like to override the PCM and start the fans when I want to but still have the PCM do it's thing too.

Thanks

There is a way to permanently keep the fans working for as long as you want when you want, the only down side is you have to actually get out the car, pop your hood, open the fuse box and put a wire in the connections where the fan relay goes and then the relay it self on top of that and voila! It will stay on and keep your car cool for hot laping at the track....

Hi,
SacCityCorvette has the Cool it v2/v3 remote fan controller.
It allows you the to run both fans on lower speed with your C5
running or not or a single fan on high speed but the igniton has to be on. Its plug and play.
Here is the link.
