Fd3s cooling fan switch advice

After temp switch that will close at 90ish degree c and open at around 85
Not sure when the fc closes and opens ( i've read they are straight fit )
Is there an adjustable switch that fits into the stock hole in back of filler neck

Also if you put links of there they could be purchased from please thanks

So I've remove my old one and from my measurements I belive the thread is m16 1.5
Thort I'd test it put it in some boiling water with a temp gauge attached to sensor it close circuit at 68d C
And open at 50d C
Is this correct ? Or is this sensor dodgy
Ether way I've ordered this part to test once engine back in vehicle I have ecu controlling cooling fan at moment but wish to use simple switch to do so to free up an auxiliary output

the stock FD switch, F202-18-840A is listed as switching at 108C.

the FC switch is identical, but switches at a lower temp (parts catalog doesn't say, i think its 95c), PN41-18-840

whomever made the switch (Nippon Denso?) probably has, or had others with different switch points, but the same connector
