Fitted the cruise control to my Z4 today, took me 10 minutes, worst part was cutting out the plastic on the steering bottom cover, but used a Stanley blade clamped into a pair of mole grips and then heated with a blow torch, very precise cut, bit of sanding after and you cant tell it has been cut.

Cheers for that Jim, I'm looking for the control in April when we go to Florida.

I've not seen what I need here Mike, I only saw one on eBay.com last year but it was a good price. I have to say though it's not at the top of my "want" list.:)

I find it invaluable Tony, although a little frustrating at times because of slower traffic.

I've found the cruise control on Gail's E89 somewhat confusing to use. You can't see the control because of the steering wheel. I frequently hit the indicator stalk instead :eek:
On the LR is on the face of the steering wheel. Much easier to (see and) use.
On my E85 its under my right foot :(

I don't think the post facelift has the wiring harness so its much more of a job than the pre-facelift model.
