I want to run some fans under the bonnet to move some air around when I shut down. I want them to run for maybe 10 - 15 minutes. Has anyone come up with a timer idea for this type of thing?

Thanks
Graham

Yeah, good idea I,ve seen them on Ebay, but not that cheap. I was looking for something in the $5 - 10 range.

Dave I like the heated window relay idea. That should be a cheapie thing to wire in. I'll start searching for one.

Thanks for the car suggestions guys, but I am on the other side of the pond. I see Volvos and a number of the German cars used them so I should be able to find something.
