Might need to fit a clutch switch in addition on a manual, IIRC.

Post by: GmasterT on 31 October 2008, 10:50:36: ah, shouldnt be too hard, is there an existing 'plug hole' (like a sink!) It goes into or is it a case for super elec boffins :)

Post by: Kevin Wood on 31 October 2008, 11:23:04: Never done it myself but I would be surprised if it's any more then fitting a switch into a bracket that's already there and plugging in a conenctor that's already there. There's a HOWTO covering facelift cruise upgrades, IIRC.

A 3.2 will need tech2'ing to enable cruise.

I bought the part from the stealers and TB did the tech2 at the WIM meet. You just need to change over the stalk and note the new one has one more pin socket than the one that is on your car.

I can look up the part number should you wish.
