Default Manual fan switch

Can somebody tell me how to make my own manual fan switch instead of paying $60+ for one, it can be hard to make. just need to know what wires to splice into and everything. Any help will be appreciated

Default

I just did mine yesterday on an lt1, so it was a little different.
Heres what u need:
1 DPDT toggle switch (sold at any home depot, Lowes, even some walmarts)
2 different color LEDs. As long as theyre close to 2v and 20mA they should work(i used a blue and red 5mm, 3.7 volt, 20mA)
2 500-600 ohm resistors (unless LEDs already have resistors)
bunch of wire splices (t-taps work best IMO)
bunch of wire connectors (i used butt splices)
18 gauge wire (use 2 different colors)

Heres a link to a write up already made.
Let us know how yours turns out.
