2005 Prius - Cruise Control retrofitted successfully

Just wanted to say a big thanks to all those that have posted the part numbers required for fitting cruise control, and I was so surprised that after 20 minutes work I got it installed and working perfectly.

So chuffed, on my UK T3 model, it cost me a grand total of £85 in parts and took literally 20 minutes to complete, if you are tempted or have thought about doing it before, then I suggest you do, it is easy and worth it. Driving distances now is so much more pleasurable.

lol, no thanks, have a garmin zumo that cost me a fortune, has lifetime map updates and speed cameras, and works a treat. Did also retrofit a Parrot Bluetooth kit to the stereo, and that works fantastic. Very very happy with the car now, next and final mod will either be a reverse camera or reverse sensors, not sure what I fancy doing yet.

Have retrofitted many things to cars over the years, my old 528 BMW, I retrofitted BMW bluetooth, Sat Nav, reverse camera, all sorts. When I finished, and was completely happy I wrote the car off the following day on mud, ended up in a 20 foot drop ditch. loved that car.... loving the prius more though, great having a tank of fuel last a distance and £10 a year road tax.

 

Yeah, I thought it was crazy that US and Jap model get heated mirrors, but here in the UK we dont, very very strange, and winter is on its way, better get the de-icer stocked up... lol. That may be a mod I might look in to. If the wiring it there, then its simple, if not, could be fun.
