Can I get cruise control added to my Mazda3?

[estok]

I'd like to get cruise control installed in my Mazda3. How much would it cost and what is the best way of doing this? Casa, or DIY?

cruise control for city driving or highways? kasi kung for city, it's pretty useless. i never use it unless i'm cruising along sctex

as to the price, i'd say mahal siya if ever since you'd have to tap to your engine, electronics for rpm, etc etc.

imo, not a smart move to install, just get a car that has it aready.

I think you can, if the local Mazda3 comes with it (controls/access just not installed).

For the local Civic, you can add cruise control by purchasing the steering wheel control/switch and a harness to tap into the ECU. Not that expensive, and quite handy if you'll be doing frequent highway driving.

Maybe the local Mazda forums can help you with this?

Best to look on the US forums... maybe someone there has done the conversion.

Should have linked to that forum, myself... since I'm a member... but I don't go into the Mazda3 section much...

Be aware, though... that shipping and customs duties will increase that price if you were to do it over here.
