We have proper helpful experts here and we care

If you want to retrofit cruise to your car, it'll be pretty simple: one control unit, one master switch, and the steering wheel switches. Then, once fitted, you need to go to your nearest dealer to get the 'cruise control fitted' check box ticked on Testbook!

you're not serious, are you!? I was jokingly going to post originally "wouldnt it be funny if it was one of the things rob bell wants" but decided that it wouldnt be funny. Now I think it is!

Serious point...has EnEnGee got the Driver Intelligence pack fitted.... computer, intelliwipers, dimming mirror? in which case - Rob - it might be that "they" have "those"...?

(how much is it worth if I rip it out for you

)

(and in answer to Keith - 4 month old child means endless mindless computer use in strange hours to stay sane... and i also need to get the car into a state where I actually trust IT to carry HIM.. some weeks off yet, I fear!!)

Hmmm Babies I remember them!

I suddenly found a need to work away from home a lot and left the domestic staff in charge of nappy duties.

I was studying when #1 was of an age of making a lot of noise - I soon learned that the Uni at 4AM was a quiet and inviting place to work

This discovery is making me very eager to see whats behind the glovebox of my 2001 ZT... Planning on sorting BCU rattle this week so i'll keep my eyes peeled....

Yup, pretty sure about it - although one of the pictures seem a little odd:

I can't identify the light-blue looking wire in the foreground? I suspect that it is the digital camera's light/colour compensation at work... is that blue/orange? All the other wires check out

More on the cruise control wiring and retrofitting here: http://www.mgf.ultimatemg.com/ZTT/cr...trol/index.htm

Obviously not quite complete owing to the lack of a loom in my car.

The final checks are to look behind the centre console for the master switch plug (black six pin female plug) and in the steering column - more details on wiring colours on that page mentioned above - or check out the schematic below:

Ah. 4 month olds. Being on call in a Hospital seems like a break in comparison

:lol:

so, anyone else have a car with Driver Intelligence pack (trip computer, dimming mirror, reverse sensors, autowipers) that would be willing to have a look and see if they have the wiring loom for the cruise.....?

(err, that is, if they havent also got cruise control, of course....)

pondweed · 15th November 2006, 13:12

look what santa also brought in his way up to Lapland... parcel already unwrapped!

My monitor is basking in the reflected green light from my envious face Jon

Looks as though you have up to three easy retro fit projects there: heated seats, cruise control and one other that I *think* could be traction control?

Might I recommend you enter the Euro Lottery? With luck like yours at the moment...

This would be very very interesting to find out - and hugely useful for other R75/ZT owners!
