I am in the process, as I type, of removing my cruise control. I have the box out, but how do I take the cable out. I have it unhooked from the inside but how do I take it out? It doesn't just pull out like i thought it would.

Second question for those of you who have removed it. What do you do with the coolant resevoir? I dont want to put the big ass ugly bracket back on, so how do I bolt the coolant resevoir back?

Also, can I use a different resevior? Like a bottle or something? I thought I read somewhere that it has to be the same height as the radiator, is that true? Also how much coolant does it have to hold?


Thanks,

Zac

I would say to get rid of the wiring loom you will have to follow the cable all the way back and pull it out piece by piece...

as for the reservoir i am not sure what you mean... a piccy would be nice

the cable wont just pull out though, thats the problem, thats why i need to know if there is something else I have to do.

Pics of the resevoir are coming

This is the fugly bracket that I need to get rid of, but I don't know how else to mount the resevior


Here is how the bracket mounts on the resevior..

yo zac, im also considering this removal, can you comment on how long the wires are to the switches?

i just want to relocate the switches away from the steering wheel maybe onto the driver's side of the center console

horse110, are you talking about the cc buttons on the steering wheel? If so, i have yet to get to that. Im still trying to figure out what im gonns do about the cable and mounting bracket.

me too lol i want to relocate it so i dont have something blocking my grip when i turn the steering wheel fast

With the right tools, you could cut off the portions of the bracket you don't need anymore. Be prepared to prime/paint so the cut edge doesn't corrode.

I want to keep the original bracket, so if I ever want the CC back, I can just put it all back together.

There has to be more people that have removed it
