Cool Traction Control

I have a SS and read with interest that some SS models have a traction control function. Mine only has a power button. Is there a way of fitting the traction control.

That brings me back to my question.
I do not have a switch to control it, is it easy or possible to fit? Is there a connector already wired in the loom and therfore add a switch or does it mean a chip edit to enable it?

Thanks for the feed back.

There should b a connector for the switch in the loom, but I don't know whether it will simply work by pluggin it in.

Maybe PM Doctor Bob, he might be able to give u straight answer.

VYII SS Man has it. Maybe the auto misses out?
