Problem with low temp thermostat and 3 wire VW switch

I also switched to the 82 deg. thermostat a while back and recently replaced my failed SAAB fan switch with the 3 wire VW model from Townsend. Problem is, my cooling system now runs TOO cool! At idle or in city driving, the temperature remains around the 9 oclock position, but at high speed on the highway the high speed fan kicks in, and the temperature drops below 8 oclock... barely in the green.
I plan on addressing the problem by replacing the low temperature 82 deg. thermostat with the origional at my earliest opportunity.
