It does have AC (that miraculously works!).. so we need to intercept the engage wire and rig that up properly as well.
Looks like (thanks Rob!) I can pillage a temp switch off an Escort
GT/Miata, which will give me a turn on around 206*F/97*C... so that's half
the battle. I forgot the Miata has one, since mine has been broken off for
a couple of years and I use ECU control instead.
Anyone know of other vehicles that have a thermoswitch that might be lower
(something closer to 185-190)?

You'll need a 2nd relay if the car has A/C. It should turn on when the A/C
compressor runs.
