Hi all, just wondering if its possible to wire an aftermarket cruise control system up to the original VP commodore cruise switch block if i can get one or do i need to get a factory set up?

Factory setup is easy to do if you collect all the parts from a wrecker - Berlina cruise switch block and connect it all up as per factory.

For ease of fitment and cost you really cant go past the factory cruise control...plenty of info if you do a search....only drama might be finding a wreck with a separate wiring loom of you can take out easily but shane from the previous post might be able to help.

Hi mate, how do they actually work. Its always been something that i have never undserstood. From the switch what components go where and do what?

here goes. Under the bonnet - Stepper motor and cable with 3 bolts & nuts. Lock nut for cable to throttle & speed clip. Cable mount bracket. Engine bay side loom (often cut on the engine side of the fire wall). Short joiner loom to get through the fire wall and hook up to the brake switch, swithcblock, fuse rail and cluster. If you work on that list you should all but be able to install cruise on your car. Best way is to get to a fresah wreck and get all the parts at once.

Get the wire diagram off JC and away you go - then ask any questions you may have along the way and you will have a VP with Cruise Control
