too rich for my blood... I'm sure its a great product and would LOVE to have it... but, I'd have to have it professionally installed... and then I'm looking at somewhere around $700 or so.... just can't do it... I'll wait for factory cruise and then sell my used Cabrio.

The installation looks very simple to me - there is one hole to drill in the stalk, and the rest is just plug and play. I'm sure I would be able to do it - and I'm a 70-year-old female cripple! - sheureka

...about what I figured.


btw, and fwiw, I am listening to "Little Martha" by Duane Allman, which I haven't heard for about 30 years. I think it is the best song in the world. Leo Kottke agrees with me.


Best Regards,

Well it is a better deal than the other mods you can do for a Smart! Thanks!

Just go to Area 451 Parts Ltd. Cruise control for the 2008 smart fortwo, click on the little dot to get in, and then click on the very top eyeball (I know, pretty weird). You can see all of the installation instructions and features there. - sheureka

Instructions look a little involved, but not impossible! Still wish the price-point was a little lower, though!

Other than drilling a hole in the column, it looks like plug and play simple installation to me. I will install myself
