Subject:Re: Is there an aftermarket cruise control for an 86GL?

Hello,

My current cruise is an AudioVox purchased at a local FLAPS.  It says that
it won't work in a Vanagon, but the issue turns out to be that the wires
are too short between the actuator and the control head.  I spliced.

All the aftermarket cruises that I have liked seem to come from the same
source regardless of brand name.  The distinguishing feature is what is
called an "electronic clutch switch."  In my experience, the cruises that
have a mechanical clutch switch are inferior in other ways which may not be
evident until they are installed.

Thanks for asking,
