how hard is it to fit cruise control to a car that does,nt have it?
also, is it different on pre-or-facelift cars and whats involved?
cheers :y
-
not hard for either, facelift (well drive by wire) much easier, but likely needs tech2
guides to do both in the maint section :y

You missed the most important bit....
What engine!?

sorry, forgot to mention ive not bought a mig yet :-[
my old 99 cdx had cruise and i liked it lots, seems quite hard to find another now with it fitted as standard :-?
the facelift cruise conversion looks the better option IMHO ;)
ive been looking at an x-reg ex-police MV6 estate auto although it needs a bit of work ::)

The way the cruise is fitted is dependant on whether it's a drive-by-wire throttle ie 2.2 2.6 or 3.2 and not whether it's facelift! ;) ;) ;)

Still need to know the exact engine, as that changes what you need to do for cruise a lot!
That said 99 plod means 3.0, so you need all the cruise gubbans under the bonnet.
3.2's only need stalk and tech2

oh bugger, yes it will be a 3L (pre road tax rip-off) i,ll be buying >:(

Road tax only affects post march 2006 cars, not 2001 as first proposed.

if its manual, you will need a clutch switch as well
the switches are easy to brake removing them, budget £15 ish each if you need to buy em new.

but they still have all the 2001 figures if they change their mind :-/

For 2.5 Tubby Denzil owners, replace standard stalk with cruise stalk (about 10 mins) and that's it, job done. Already enabled. :y

Yup, 2.5TDs pre-enabled (but they take a unique stalk).
2.2 (petrol and diesel), 2.6, 3.2 need a chit chat with tech2. 2.0 petrol and 2.5/3.0 need all gubbins under bonnet installed

thanks for all the advice but ive just bought a mig with cruise control fitted as standard ;)
i,m a very happy boy ;D
