It looks quite easy, im just unsure what to connect throttle cable wise to the main "box". The electronics looks piss, apart from the brake light thing.

xe's had speedo cable's...

will probably just use a sender between the cable and box, like on spi nova's/corsa's with cables...

Is that guide not for a FBW throttle, its for a phyiscal wire throttle?

As above rele, just want to know the possibility. I do LOADS of motorway driving in my 1.2, so when I get my 1.6, I wanna have cruise.

I found this:

http://82.34.52.15/sytemsandsoftwaredevelopment/systems/automotive/How_to/General/CruiseControl.htm

Fitting cruise to a Mk3 astra, but it has to have ABS right?

Any help?

Cheers..
