Hi,
Has anyone here installed a aftermarket cruise control unit. I've got a Nb8a and was wondering what people may have used/preferences and and photos of their setups.

Thanks
Mark

My NB8A has one installed, was there when I bought it 2 years ago, for my liking i'd rip it out!! No need for something like that!! Just after I bought the car I was on Bribie Road 100kph and unknown to me I'd bumped it 'on', didn't see the light on because of sun behind me and entered the roundabout only to find I didn't slow down!! Freaked me out big time but I got thru then realised what had happened! Ihave cruise also in one of my Corolla's, never used it because I was taught from the outset that you feel a cars performance thru the accelerator

I think the one in the NB8A is a genuine Mazda installation

Here are a couple of older threads on the subject including pix on what I have on my NB8B.

Cool, thanks for those, I did a search but didn't find much, must have done it wrong.

As far as using the cruise, it's not something I want for around town, more for keeping fatigue down for long straight boring bits of highway.

Any photos of engine bays with cruise fitted would be appreciated
