    Nah not running continuously, I was thinking the other way around, running the centre fan off the existing electric fan feed, then the other 2 off another controller or dual thermo switch.
    The trans cooler is on the passenger side so there is a bit of fiddling to do to run some hose.

      As an update that I likely posted in another thread, I ended up running a Taurus fan so upped the relay on that to a large Jaycar unit. You could run that to supply power to the two other fans in parallel. Also to reduce temps in summer I will supplement the low speed mode of the Taurus fan with a cheap mechanical switch, Hayden brand I think it was, about $30 posted off Amazon - will set it at around 100*C at the hot end of the radiator. Reason for this is to reduce amp draw from the Taurus when it spins up as it will be already running and as my trans cooler is in front of it give it a bit of extra cooling in traffic before the fans cycle on.

            Cool, no worries.

            It's new and reduced from shipping and exchange rate, hence the price.
