Thanks Stevie,

I've rigged it up to work right now, using the existing wiring/relay/switch for the fog lights (jumped the #11 fuse to #20 fuse for power). Only problem is that it will only work with the headlights on at this point.

I'm working with another pelican (86 911 Targa) to try to figure this out. I think that the issue right now is that there is some sort of headlight-driven switch in between the grey wire (going from the #20 fuse to the dash fog lamp switch) and the blue/white wire (coming from the dash fog lamp switch and going to the fog lamp relay). I think that this switch only lets power flow when the headlights are turned on and unless I can figure out how to bypass it, I'll either have to deal with the headlights needing to be on for the fan to run, or I'll have to go and buy another relay, etc, and give up the idea of using all the leftover fog lamp stuff.

One thing that may work would be to run a wire to the #20 straight from the "key on terminal" feed at the ignition switch and then the other wire from #20 to whatever I use as a switch and then splice the blue/white wire from the fog lamp relay into the same switch. Not sure if that takes everything into account though (or if it will leave me with any live leftovers at the end of the day???).

Any and all thoughts are welcome! I'm going to bed.
