Wizard sell one suitable for what you want, or I used one from Merlin Motorsport.  You can adjust the switch-on temp by moving the probe accross the radiator fromthe hot side tot he cold (it clips between the vanes, ie it's a dry fit).

One some cars you can also find a switch fitted tot eh thermostat elbow, our first engine had one (may be a SD1 part).

All Classic Range Rovers with Air Con have a temperature sensor fitted to the thermostat housing. The sensor swiches the twin AC fans in front of the rad.
