Hi List, I've ordered the Audiovox CSS100 version cruise control and will pick

it up next week when I'm in the US. Meanwhile, researching the installation and I found a couple of things I'd like to clear up. the12volt.com says this about my 86 Westy:

1986-92 Volkswagen Vanagon Cruise Control Wiring Information Constant 12V+ Red Ignition Switch Harness or Use Hot Side of Brake Switched 12V+ Black Ignition Switch Harness Ground Use Chassis Near Cruise Control Module Hot Side of Brake n/a Brake Switch Cold Side of Brake Red/Yellow Brake Switch Tach Green Coil VSS Wire n/a Pulses Per Mile 8000 PPM Notes: Vehicles with Manual Transmission require Clutch Switch. Some vehicles may require a speed signal generator and/or other parts/ adapters not listed above. Rostra® Cruise Control module switch settings may differ if you use a speed signal generator or magnets and

a pick up coil.

This states there's no VSS wire. Is that true?

Also, the Audiovox website has the installation manual available for PDF download at http://tinyurl.com/6e6zd8
