Default so im removing the cruise control..

so im removing my cruise control and i basicly just cut it out... and unbolted it.. WELL.. a word of caution.. i was not thinking and if any of you ever do this.. the vacum line that goes into the cuise control unit NEEDS to be tied off, OR the next time you start the car it will rev right to red line and sit there like that... scared the shit out of me.. but capped it off and its fine...

reason for removal : was in the way, never used it, lost steering wheel controls when i went to the momo.. so obviously it was pretty useless...

the only part i cut was the wire that controls the throttle.. it looked like a pain in the ass... you would still need that and all the wiring.. the hassle to remove the wiring wakes it not worth it

sensor does...

cable does somewhere but is in the firewall somewhere

the wiring is all up in the car..

the vacum line DOES but needs to be closed or it revs through the roof.
