Ditto. Should be any day now I hope. I have an '09 so hopefully the install should be simple.

CTSscott, is your setup able to be cancelled by pressing the brake? and can you over-ride the set speed with acceleration to a new speed and then pressing set again?

Yes - Brake (or on/off button) cancels it and I can accelerate and hit set again to lock in a new speed.

very nice! given my expertise with cars, this will be a fun summer project! lol

AlexNet0 · 04-29-2009, 01:22 PM

it wont be an issue as long as I can find the pin under the dash with help from PK's writeup or instructions/pics, whatever, lol

CTScott · 04-29-2009, 11:36 PM

I just posted a DIY for those with 09s, who wish to use the switch method:

Hurry up PK!

Pitt Yaris · 04-30-2009, 01:30 PM

Very cool, I'm thinking of mounting the switch where my auto mirror adjustment would be to the left of the steering wheel

I just added a note on my DIY in regards to cars with MT. TDB-1 PM'd me tonight. He attempted the two button method on his 09, and the on/off worked, but not the set. He inquired if there was anything different about a MT, and it turns out that the MT requires a second switch on the clutch for cruise.

The "Cruise Control Clutch Switch" is needed as well. This is a second clutch switch (there's already one called the "Clutch Start Switch"). The "Cruise Control Clutch Switch" connects to connector A29. Its part number is: 88280-14030 and it lists for ~$18.

Seems pretty silly, except the start one detects fully pressed and the cruise on detects the initial press of the pedal.

Is the 'Cruise Control Clutch Switch' only needed if using your two button method on a MT? Will I still need it if I'm using the OEM stalk?

CtrlAltDefeat · 05-02-2009, 04:09 AM

Damn damn damn! I have an 08 MT. That's 2 strikes. My dream of $20 OEM CC is fading fast...

Yes, the clutch switch is just for MT, and it is still needed with the OEM stalk. It keeps the car from over revving if you press the clutch while in cruise mode.

TDB-1 · 05-02-2009, 10:37 AM

Ok I just finished up my 2 button cruise setup on my 09 3 door 5speed. I did everything as per the DIY and it works great!!!! I had to jump the clutch switch for the test until I get the correct switch. This works just don't step on the clutch while on cruise or the engine could over rev. I got my switches at Radio Shack for $2.69 each and they look identical to the ones in the DIY. I used 2- 330 ohm resisters also from Radio Shack that cost $.99 for a 5 pack. This is the best thing I did to the car since I got it. THANKS to all who figured this was possible

nickhjort · 05-02-2009, 10:24 AM

There's no way of rigging your own MT Clutch Switch for doing this DIY? Not that 18 bucks is that bad, but if you didn't want to wait around for the thing to show and could possibly use some stuff you have laying around in your electronics drawer?

nickhjort · 05-02-2009, 11:09 AM

Also I searched quick and I couldn't find anything on removing the dash for the 07 liftback 3dr. Does anyone know where I might find a quick reference guide?
