why do you want to use one?
My temp gauge is up and down like a yo-yo, and occasionally the temp gauge gets into the red before it drops down, so it looks like it needs replacing. I've seen these 82 degree ones on eBay and wondered if they were worth the purchase as are slightly cooler than the standard item?
The standard stat opens at 88˚ so the 82˚ one will help. For the sake of a tenner it cost's it's good, coupled with a cossy fan switch this will bring the fan in that bit earlier too - You could also fit a fan overide switch to get the fan on as and when i.e if you hit traffic etc. Good for if u have a large fmic.

Your fan should cut in will before it get's near the red, so you may need to think about wether the problem is just your stat
