facelift & prefacelift isn't what's different, it's whether it's drive-by-wire throttle or not that makes the difference.  Thumbs Up!

Whatever!  Roll Eyes Wink I was making the point that facelift or preface lift was irrelevant .... whether you had a throttle cable was! Wink

Mines got a throttle cable matey if that helps

Mines got 2 studs under the header tank is this where it bolts? And there is a cable plug that fits it situated on top of the same strut mount. The stalk is in. What do i do with the brake switch?

Swap one for the other. My brake switch has 2 sets of contacts inside, I assume a none cruise car will only have the one  Undecided
Yes the 2 studs on your inner wing are for the cruise to be bolted down with  Thumbs Up!  Thumbs Up!

As Andy says, its engines that are important, not if its a facelift or not....

3.0 facelift, no tech2, 3.2, tech2  Thumbs Up!

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

I would imagine that the loom to the existing brake switch already has 4 wires in it.
