fan to cool me off

Happy Thanksgiving to all
Quick question, where can buy a small 12 volt fan to cool me off as a driver. In the summers in Chicago it can get hot and I was thinking about installing a fan on my dash to get some air moving around in my "cock pit ;), anyone know where I can get a fan to stay cool. Are there any that are better than others ?
Thanks,
Jeff M.

I picked up a couple at Wal-Mart back in the spring to use in my RV. Go back in automotive section and they have a whole area full of RV accessories.

Something else to consider is a fresh air helmet and airpump system. Just cooling the brain cavity will increase the comfort level waaay up there ! I use one in addition to the external air moving device. Speedway Motors is a good source.
