well put a collar on your pet peeve, steve.. those who are interested will
email me to find out more, if ya aint interested, then hit the delete key :<)
and fyi im asking 195 for it, cheaper than most aftermarket cruise control
systems.. no fishing for bears, suckers, peeves or any other pets..

as far as installation..its simple..  you removed it, just reinstall it..
actually the installing a cruise control system in a vanagon is one of the
easiest installations you can do.. if you have all the parts..there is one main
harness that goes to the vac pump in the engine bay, one hose from the pump to
the bladder attached to the throttle body , one hose from the pump to the
pedal switches...wiring harness to the relay box. pedal switches, speedo pickup,
stalk switch, and fuse box, is all one harness.. the trickiest part is tapping
off of the fuse box.
