I think almost all manufacturers use the same thread thermoswitches now, 
M22x1.5.

There are also dual switches available. I used one in my car, which 
turned on at 95°C and 105°C (IIRC). I believe it was for an Audi, with 
three speed fan.

I later found one 82°C switch, which was for some Peugeot IIRC.

I'm currently controlling two of the three speeds of my monster Audi fan 
from the EFI, which makes it completely programmable.

Cheers,
Thomas
