Jul 2006 at 14:07 They are not engine or trim specific (CDx and Elite had it as standard)....so any actuator based cruise system (which is most of them) will work......even the one off a Vectra will work but the cable may need changing!

If you get a 2.0 cruise unit then I believe it will need reprogramming if used on a V6 and vice versa. It's to do with the engine speed signal. The cruise will actually work, but the lower speed limit for cruise will be wrong.

The cable is different for the 3.0, 2.5, Vectra 2.5 and 2.0 so try to get the right cable. They cost about £50 from the dealer.

The cruise actuator is the same across quite a few Vx models.

I have a long commute and use cruise every day. I find it excellent and it allows you to stretch your legs.

Shall keep an eye out and try to get the right parts if not possible shall just go direct to Vx and get the right length cable.

But the clutch switch (if you have a manual) is a pain. They're quite rare secondhand and cost about £19 from the dealer. You might also need a 4 wire brake switch, another £13 or so.

Shall definately keep an eye out on ebay for a kit, I maybe lucky.

Clutch switch heard a few people mention these, may just go to the dealer when the time comes.

Brake switch again maybe lucky if not dealer it will be.

Has anyone got any pictures or part numbers of the Clutch switch and Brake switch for future reference.

Cheers in advance

Roy
