Adding after-market cruise control

[kurt535]

Hi all,

Does anyone have a preferred make/person to go to for a cruise control system?

Im leaning toward conrad anderson at the moment.

Many thanks

I guess it depends a bit on the car.

I fitted a Dakota Digital one to an old Alfa Spider a few years ago. It did the trick.

What car is it? With some cars you can buy the stalk with cruise on it or the steering wheel and just program the CC via tech computers.

I had cruise added to my Mk2 Focus ST



It’s not the most elegant solution, but it works. It’s a CANBUS system so is relatively simple to install.

Ty all: car in questions is a Toyota Avensis 2010 petrol.

Ask on a toyota specific forum, there may be a retrofit possible using factory scrapyard parts.

Looking at pictures of a 2010 Avensis, the cruise control is a short stalk at the 4 O'Clock position. You could search on ebay:

That was useful to know they are out there; mine is a T27 so am now hunting one down.
