What Is Needed For A Cruisecontrol Install?

My 05 grand voyager was delivered without cruisecontrol and heated front seats and i want both so looking for what is needed to install them?

Most importantly cruisecontrol.

Hi, first you need the whole kit, which includes the harness, steering wheel controls, brake and accelerator sensors, cruise control module, it might be some more but I don't remember them now.

I quoted once for a different model, from scrap yards goes around £500.

You could go for a universal cruise control and with a bit of improvising you can add the controls to the steering wheels.

As per the heated seats, look under the seats if the wiring is already there or behind the place where the buttons should be( if there is any plugs not used it could be the ones for the heating seats), if there is you need the seats, locate the fuse and find the buttons online. If there isn't you need to add to them a new circuit, if you have spare place in the fuse box use that otherwise use the rear window defrost fuse.

 

Hope it helps.

Thank you very much, i'm gonna check out the seats.

Doesn't look like the cruisecontrol is worth it imo

Oooh but it does, it makes a huge difference cruising on long trips.

Just if it doesn't come factory fitted, do an aftermarket one, its a lot easier to install and you don't have to run it through the ecu.
