Default electric fan conversi

i got an 88gt and i put an electric fan on it, and for now i got a manual switch i use to turn on and off, i was wondering if and where i can get a switch that i can somehow put into my radiator or my intake so that when it reaches 160 or so, it will turn on the fans... i was thinking i could use a switch outa a honda or something but i'd rather do it the best way i could... ive seen chep ones that have a metal wire running down the hose to read the temp, but that dont seem very quality... any help? thanks!

go to pepboys and buy what is called a VSC or you can get if from flexlite. this controls the fans when they come on. costs around 40 bucks

yes there is some write up on this with a temp sensor which you leave on , and ill come on at a certain temp . also did you know most eec IV computers from stangs have provision for fan speed its just not used , its on pin41 , i did it to a friends car and hooked it to a mark VIII fan and i can command when it comes on , but you obviously need a tunner , hold on ill look for it
