E85 cruise control

Post by Z4Nelson » Thu Apr 04, 2019 8:34 pm

Hi all, I'm new to this forum, I've had my z4 3 years. Now I'm wanting retrofit cruise control but my model needs the extra wiring loom. I have a 2005 z4. I was told a Mr SRHutch can help me out. If you're reading this Mr SRHutch , could you please contact me as I have no idea how to use this forum properly. I'm a computer and internet hater, but I love my z4. Cheers.

Welcome to the forum OP. :thumbsup: (Finally). :lol:

You'll need to get the cruise control stalk regardless of whether your car has the wiring - but SRHutch makes up the section of loom you need if your car doesn't have it. I'm pretty sure there is a "How To" guide for retro-fitting cruise control.

Once you've made 3 posts you can use the Private Message facility (see top right of the screen) to send him a message direct, so you could just post a couple of times (maybe with photos of your car for a start) to get up to 3. :thumbsup:

Cheers for that. I'm not very good on the computer as I try to avoid the internet as much as I can. I'll see if I can get a pic up. Where do I post it?
