I installed one of these CCS-100 cruise controls a few months ago, and like it a lot. It really makes spending time on the highway easy. I don't find the ankle angle of right foot holding accelerator pedal comfortable and after an hour or so, it really starts to bother me. No more. The cruise control holds the set speed pretty accurately. It can't get the throttle all the way open, so I sometimes have to "help" it in the mountains, but that's ok. Many people mount the little control pad on the right side of the dash over one of the empty switch blanks. I already had something in that spot, so I went with this alternate location: http://snipurl.com/16b9u I trimmed the corner of the control pad so that it would tuck into the corner of the cluster without sticking out into the speedo too much, or covering the fasten seat belt light any more than it does.
