Me too!

There has been a plethora of posts on the subject of Bongo Cruise Control.

I think the consensus was that it is not worth the bother.
It also requires a lot of faffing around to get a vacuum supply (can one actually get a vacuum supply, seems an oxymoron to me).

A search of the forum should (yeh right) reveal all.

I have installed one of these & it works very well. In fact you dont use half the kit as the speed feed is taken from the dashboard (so no messing with magnets & driveshafts) & being an automatic gearbox, you dont have to fit the switch for a clutch.

Took about half a day to do & that included taking some pictures for a factsheet. If anyone wants a copy of this (its only a draft version, so it's mainly pictures with some basic text), please send me a pm & I'll email a copy (3Mb Word doc).
