DIY ROSTA CRUISE HELP

[superfly78209]

Well I have an 07. There are a lot of parts I would have to buy (not able to just buy the cruise stick like the 08s) and I would also have to remove the air bag and etc. I figured it would have been easier to go with the Rostra. I've heard good things but the new "universal" kit they have put out for the 06-current Yaris cars doesn't seem to be too great.

i didn't know for an 08 all you needed was the OEM cuise stalk....I should swap to it. My Rostra works, but occasionally it slows down instead of accelerating.

For an 07 you would need:

Cruise Stalk with wire and mounting screws

ECM connector Pin

Two steering wheel connector D3 pins

Optional - My Cruise Control Indicator Module (which provides a visual indicator that cruise is on for pre-09 Yaris, which don't have the indicator in the cluster).

From the dealer the stalk, wire, mounting screws and pins would run about $150. I sell the stalk with wiring and screws for $40, The ECM pin for $5, The pair of connector D3 pins for $5, and my indicator module for $25. So, for an 06-08 Yaris, OEM cruise can be as little as $50.

You are correct on having to pop off the airbag, but that is really not as daunting as it sounds. My DIY shows all of the details of the OEM install:
