 - works greatThe instructions were adequate but suffered from having to apply to all vehicles. The particular settings for my car (96 VW Jetta)were clear. The most difficulty was in finding a place to mount the control in the engine compartment. I fabricated a bracket using some of the included parts. The wiring connections were straightforward. I have a VW shop manual with electrical diagrams and was able to make all the under dash connections to the fuse/relay panel using open slots. There is a blank dash panel, used if the car has heated seats, that worked for attaching the switch module The Amazon price with free shipping was less than my employee discounted cost at a local parts store. Rating:  - great product. works wonderfully.The installation took most of one afternoon. During my first road test, the module was not working properly, but that was because I did not secure the actuator cable rigidly enough. That problem was solved easily by using the metal brackets supplied in the kit. Everything is included in this kit. The only thing I needed to install it was common hand tools and a multimeter to ensure the vehicle wiring was as I suspected. The instruction booklet s very good, but the vehicle specific attachment locations for my VW were not very helpful with the color specifications. Finding the the correct transmission and distributor wires required a some though and the multimeter for confirmation, but I got it all correct the first time. I highly recommend this product. The only problems I've had using it are it doesn't hold the speed constant driving up steep hills and it does not disengage when the clutch is depressed, but those are probably specific to my vehicle, and adjusting the sensitivity might correct them. Rating: - Relatively easy, though time consuming installI installed this unit about a year ago on a 2004 Turbocharged MX5 with six speed manual. The install was very smooth despite the manual being vague at times. I will say that you should be somewhat proficient in car wiring, or at least know your own car, otherwise this is not an install for you. Also, set aside some time, several hours at the least to lay out the wiring and the parts you will need The unit works almost flawlessly, only occasionally dropping a mile or two an hour which can be annoying at times (though it may just be my speed signal). The unit has a very good threshold before dropping out and is easy to control. I was even able to update my OEM switchgear to control it, as mine didn't come with the option installed. All in all, this is a wonderful product that I have little problem with, and for a universal unit is excellent. Rating: - ccs100 aftermarket cruise controlThis product was fairly easy to install but the instruction leave a little to be disired. There are a few extra pieces needed if you have a four cylinder car you are putting this on which raises the cost of installation. Overall though a good product. Rating: - Difficult but Fantastic Tech SupportI found Tech support fabulous!. I had some problem getting the cruise to engage. Tech support told me how to wire a single pole double throw resistor.The problem comes with LED tailigts, not to anyone using LED you will need to check the cold side of brake wiring and if any power registers, use the resisitor. That was not the end of my complications. I also needed to isolate the input to only VSS and ground the tach wire. I simply could not have done this project without tenacious and competent techs. I learned a ton, but you better stick with this or it will beat you. Well Done Techs!
