I never got a chance to put it in. After getting used to seeing the temp gauge rise a bit to where the 92ºC switch cut in, and noticing that no matter how hot the ambient temp was the coolant dropped quickly with the low fan on it just didn't seem as important. I think I'll do the same as you're thinking and just put a manual override for either the high speed or the condensor fan.

I've got 6 days off following a trip next month, I may take the time to play with the dual speed feature then.
