Windstar fans supposedly work.

There's a couple threads on here about how people have done the switch. I'd go with a relay kit/fan controller of some kind. A toggle switch would work but if you forgot or someone else was driving it.......

Use a relay that is controlled by the toggle switch since the fans have a high current draw. Most switches will burn out in short order unless they are rated for the amount of draw.
