Is this the correct way to make condenser fan independent to a/c switch???

If so should I put 30amp fuse holder between condenser fan and a/c switch??

NO, I wouldn't do that. What do you want to do ? Have a switch to turn the condensor fan on at anytime, or off at anytime ? or ?

setup has two electric fans. One is the original aux (condenser) fan aka 16inch spal curve pusher and the other is a new electric radiator fan. Both fans will only run at a single full speed. Replaced the radiator switch with the 80/88C switch. With these changes,fans will run as so:

1. Temp hits 80C. Radiator fan kicks on.
2. Temp hits 88C. Aux fan kicks on to supplement the radiator fan.
3. AC is turned on. Both fans come on.

the new radiator fan plug and play,e36 electric fan.

OK, what behavior are you trying to achieve for the fans ? with regards to AC on, AC off, temp switch low 80 or temp switch high 88. please elaborate a bit. and this is an E36 ?
