Evo X 300 SST Cruise control fitment

[nickyd]

Cruise control kits do exist for the SA SST. Has anyone had one fitted? I have not been able to source the necessary kit but pictures I have seen (somewhere) show the steering wheel fitments to be identical to those on my Colt CZ2 (2010).
All ideas welcome.

I got Mitsubishi (Bristol) to fit the cruise control (from Matt of TRL). This was to maintain the warranty.
When going to pick the car up...lo and behold it had not been done!! It had been forgotten!
''It only takes twenty minutes or so to fit'',the Mitsu Man said.
I agreed to wait and was charged 1/2 hour labour plus vat =£48.
It works well.
Looks like Mattrst was right!

I've tried out the newly fitted cruise control. It works well in 5th and 6th gears.
I am familiar with the system on my 2010 1.3 Colt CZ2 but I did have a surprise when I pressed the acc./reset button at 60mph.The SST dropped a cog immediately (into 5th) and the Evo shot off up the motorway!!:shock:
The trick is to press it for only a very short time and the car will go to its original speed setting in a more gentle manner.
A set of instructions would have been handy but a good kit nevertheless.
