Default Fitting factory cruise control

Hi there, am thinking of fitting cruise (factory) to my AU2 LPG ute. Wondering if everything is in the loom and it's just a case of swapping my stalks for cruise switch ones, fitting the steering wheel switches and plugging in and fitting the engine hardware and plugging in. I can't recall seeing a factory LPG car with it fitted so hopefully it is possible. Any idea of price and availability? Thanks

There will be a loom to fit in the engine bay which connects to the module and goes through the firewall to the orange (from memory) connector behind the fuse panel. Also the trim on the back of the steering wheel needs to have a 10mm piece removed where the right hand switches are mounted.

Thanks for that. Damn! This is getting out of control, I might as well put a Momo on it whilst pulling the steering wheel apart!

Try this mob. I got mine from there in a complete kit second hand. Had everything and works a treat! Think it was around $200. It was easy to fit only taking about 4 hours all up. The hardest part was dealing with undoing the airbags on the steering wheel. You will need a 5 sided torx bit(I think a number 30 not sure now????) , or a lot of patience trying to dig them out by modifying a screwdriver.
