    You can get a Dealer or mechanic to do it. Mine is a DX (base model) and i got genuine nissan cruise on it.
    Defs go to a mechanic or Nissan just to be safe. Its not something to do yourself unless your confident.

    I've also got a GU without cruise control (mines a ZD30), I have wondered what would be required to fit it...
    I have a bit of knowledge with this sort of thing but with different manufacturers products, I've fitted cruise control to a couple of cars by simply fitting a switch and programming the necessary modules. I don't see why this should be any different, the engine is all computer controlled, there's no throttle plate...

    Hi largey,
    may I ask how it got there?
    Would be kind of useful to know.
    Otherwise I'm pleased you got a knob with cruise control.
    (Don't know what my missus would say if I fitted a cruise control onto my knob :-)
    Na, tell me, did you fit it yourself or did you get it installed?
    Regards

    There were problems with the Factory Cruise Control fitted to the manual/possibly auto ZD30 vehicles. It was something to do with the drive-by-wire setup. They pulled it from supply. Autron are now supplying a version that has actually been tested to replace this unit aftermarket and can be fitted to manuals from the documents i read. Someone on the forum has one, i just can't remember who it was.. may be worth a search if you are interested.

    Hi largey,
    don't take this the wrong way but I don't think it's a good idea of posting a pic of ya 'nob on this forum,
    even so it might be interesting to see what such a cruise control might look like.
    However if you've got a pic of the cruise control in your truck, I'd love to see a pic of that!
    Cheers :-)
