Retrofit Cruise Control to '04 996 GT3

[ltcjmramos]

I see this write-up for retrofitting cruise control to a 986 (http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=661). Would this be applicable to an '04 996 GT3?

If cruise was an available option, I'm sure it could be retrofitted. I've never done a GT3, but it should be the same as an 02-04 Carrera. I don't have a wiring diagram specific to the GT3, so I can't check. Use the same method as the later Boxster/997 - wiring between the stalk and cluster only (ie no connections to the DME) and you will need to get the Cluster AND DME coded with a PST2. I'll PM you some details.
