If auto, just fit the stalk and get it enabled with a Tech 2. :y

Have a look on ebay, that's where i bought mine, brand new (£25.00 BIN with post included), just make sure you buy the right one, as there's a few to choose from. Then just Tech II as TB says. MDTM did mine & it's very simple to do :y

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

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.
