    Hello, I’m new here and this my first post, I apologise in advance if I am posting in incorrect section.

    my issue:

    I bought a Japanese imported 2016 Gen 4 Toyota Prius, this is my second Prius and I love it! Unfortunately it does not have cruise control, my previous Prius (Gen 3) was same but I was able to buy a full kit online and had it fitted, it worked a great.

    however for the Gen 4 I have not been able to find one, can someone please help/guide me to installing cruise control to my Gen 4 and where to buy the kit?

    Will be massively appreciated.

    have a lovely day all!

    P.S I’m from the UK.

    No, sorry, don't know. BUT I's suspect that you're looking at either the improbable - or even impossible.

    These functions have things like that deeply integrated into the computer systems (ECU) (6 of them I think plus electronic control Units), and other features like the Lane Departure, many brake functions etc. It's also linked with the Dashboard displays. The Cruise control uses the forward recognition camera behind the R/V Mirror, the RADAR unit behind the Grille Logo, at least 3 speed sensors, for a start.

    I’d agree that it’s impracticable to add Toyota Safety Sense-P with dynamic radar cruise control (though someone was trying), but I’m still not sure about adding constant-speed cruise control, discussed previously:

    Howdy Guys Cruise Control On A Prius | PriusChat
    Adding cruise switch to basic version | PriusChat
    Install Cruise Control on Toyota Prius 50 | PriusChat

    None of those threads ended with a clear, definitive report of whether or not it’s possible, and if so, what parts (and wiring, if any) would have to be added.
