What's a good aftermarket cruise control to add to my 92 Civic VX (5 speed)? I will be using an OEM dash switch, but I don't want any controls on my steering wheel and I don't want to swap steering wheels. Price is a major factor but I wont install junk. As always, it's do it right or not at all.

Depending on price/quality of what's available in the aftermarket I also want to consider swapping oem equipment (except the steering wheel). My clutch already has the switch. I wont have trouble finding a throttle body. I never thought about doing this before but now I want to extend my highway mpg as much as possible. Anybody want to toss some suggestions/experience/links my way that would be cool.

I just got up to 47mpg highway with my 3 Stage VTEC motor BTW. Not bad for a relatively stock setup putting out 119hp at the wheels.

If you're wrong and offended at the same time, that's your pride interrupting the learning process.

rostra/audiovox is the best imo. its an electric cruise, runs off of vss. also has a tach input for manual trans. this eliminates the need for a clutch switch, as it shuts down the cruise as soon as it detects fast rev. increase. shuts down so fast you probably wont even notice.

When the throttle drops, the bullshit stops.

Ditto that ^^^ it is the ones we use exclusively, never had one come back for anything but adjustments. 94

^^^ now in the process of being striped down and gutted for the rebuild.

You get what you pay for.

Nothing is impossible, the impossible takes longer and costs more money.
