HI gents Is it Easy enough to fit Cruise Control to your car if it hasn't been fitted with it? switch at the pedal and the vacuum and mount?

Not easy,

 

Tried it a few times but generally zeds without cruise are missing essential parts in the loom to make it all work.

 

I've added the ECU and also the steering controls to turn it on and off and on my zed I can here the relays click

but after that the cruise plug in the engine bay is missing and also the connectors under the dash.

There used to be a fairly comprehensive guide somewhere about fitting it, can't find it now though. Anyone got it?

Generally I say don't attempt it unless you have a donor car by your side. You need to take some loom that is coupled with the body harness so can get messy if you don't have a reference.

 

You will need to add the loom in the engine bay also which connects to the cruise computer.

Thanks for the response guys, so sounds like just don't bother, its a good bit of work if you have the time more trouble than its worth, and loads more parts to look for.

For reference for anyone attempting an ASCD retrofit these are the FSM pages I scanned (for RHD cars) for Joel's retrofit.
