Cruise Control

[pauln]

Gidday. I just bought a 2004 Patrol Cab Chassis with a 160,000 kms on it. Great condition. My first Patrol, but wont pick up to next week. Anyway, does anyone know what it is worth to get Cruise Control fitted? Thanks.

$700 for the Autron cruise control , Great unit, perfect for Auto
3 years ago maybe 4 now, Highly recommend

Mine is a 5 speed manual

No probs , just that cruise controls suit the auto better than the Manual.
With manual you need to remember not to engage clutch when CC is on,
or revs go through the roof, Go for it, better for fuel as well

3d has a very valid point.
If I am doing one or helping someone else I tell them ALWAYS fit a clutch switch (sama sama as factory cruise).

For sure, you would be mad not to fit it.

Cruise control and manual, depress clutch and you disengage cruise, engine doesn't maintain revs. A quick tap on the clutch I find is the easiest way to disengage when coming up to slow moving vehicles.
