ok so i have been shopping a fair bit for jimnys atm and something i want is Cruse Control, however i have only scene one jim with this! is there any relatively easy way to add things such as cc to a jim without it, as in a plug and play deal?? and can you buy the factory parts?? im guessing jim would need a module and the stork with switches on it?

Take your time when looking and one with what you want and cruise control will come by.

factory cruse will always work better and integrate better than an after market one.
I opted for an after market cruse control system back when i bought my GV new many years ago and it was not a cheap one, i installed it correctly my self and it was a load of shit !! the switch gear was flimsy and fell apart and after long periods of using the cruse control and when a steeper than normal hill was met it would shut off
shop around and get one with the factory options that you want, would like to think the later M series jimny's would have a better chance of having cruse control.

google is your friend, pretty much every cruse control unit in repco, autobarn is a one unit fit's all brands ect they use the VSS signal for reference or the really cheap ones use a magnet tip tied to the tailshaft with a dodgy bracket with the pickup, then supply w universal bracket to mount on the throttle for the cruse control cable and then you usually need to get a vacuum supply for it.
