yes but it won't cost 10$ and now it will look too general :( this was more like you actually understand the electronics etc so you can show it to the friends and be proud on what you have done (with help of YW )

Hey all I haven't been keeping up on this post, or others for that matter :) I was without a computer for a while and am just now getting set back up. Anyway I'm glad to see that so many people are interested, or have already done their own Cruise Control. I am just here to say that I am one of the first to set mine up in this manner and it's been a little over a year. My cruise has been a life saver (foot saver rather) and i barely spent over 15 dollars (that's on the first setup with all parts sitting in my junk part piles) and now have updated it with a few OEM parts (clutch switch, ECU pin insert, etc) Also for those of you that want to have an even closer OEM look, I strongly recommend CTScott's LED module (if he's still selling them) for making your CC light an LED when it's switched on. I mounted my LED inside the gauge cluster and it looks bad ass :) Anyway I just wanted to let everyone know all is well with this setup and keep sticking it to the man HAHA!!

No - Only the US version has cruise control.

Very impressive nickhjort!

CTScott, do you still sell these indicator lights? If so, how can I purchase one from you? Also, where would I connect the wires if I'm installing an oem cruise control stalk on my 07 hatchback?

I do still sell the indicator modules. I don't have any ready to ship at the moment, but can build one up if you are interested.

Thanks CTScott. I would like to order one of these LED modules. Are they still $25? How do I send you payment?

Hi CTScott,

Just wondering if you got a chance to make this switch yet.

Hello all,

I hope my question isn't stupid. I have been reading all the forum hours and hours. They are kind of confusing. BTW, I have 08 Yaris LB.

So, I ordered a cruise stalk from here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TOYOT...Q5fAccessories

I understand that I can just "combine" the "DIY cruise control 07-08 with button" and "OEM stalk 2009", then everything should work magically.

Here are my questions:
1. So, the stalk I purchased from eBay could be just substituted as the switches in "DIY cruise control 07-08", right??
2. If Question 1 is a yes, then how do I know which wire from the stalk goes where?
3. Do I need to get any other parts besides the stalk?

1. Yes.

2. It actually doesn't matter which of the two goes to the ECM pin 40 and which goes to ground.

3. Yes. You need a repair pin for the ECM and one for the connector under the steering column. See this thread for the details:

Hi Scott.. I priced out the two repair kits for the connectors (82998-24250, 82998-12870), and man they are pricey.. They are $11.98 each. Do you know what comes in the kit for $11.98?

A little piece of wire with the pin attached is all that you get for $12. I recently bought the parts so that I can offer the 3 pin/wire set for $10 shipped.

Thanks for the answer. There must be something I still not getting. In the instruction, DIY Cruise Control 07-08, it did not say anthing about the "repair pin". If I missed it, please kindly point it out...

Isn't the repair pin.. just a piece of wire??

And, what is a repair pin? any pictures? what does it do?

Thanks!!

The DIY shows just sticking a piece of wire into the connector. This is not a good long term solution, as it will allow moisture to enter the sealed connector. The repair pin is one of the correct pins (with the rubber seal) that inserts into the connector.
