PaulMc Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 for cutting the hole in the side of the steering wheel for the CC control unit to sit in. The proper 'Set/Resume' switch requires a specific shaped hole, not a 32/34mm round hole See the article I linked to earlier - http://www.discovery2.co.uk/cruise_install.html .

I which case, I tip my hat to you I helped my mate fit a DiscoParts kit to his TD5 DII a few years ago. We drilled several small holes, joined them up and opened it out with a file. I've not had to fit cruise control to my DII, as it's a V8, which has it factory fitted . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
