987 cruise control retrofit?

[jpbecker]

Is it possible to retrofit cruise control to an 08 Boxster? I do a 120 mile round trip on mainly motorways daily and could do with cruise to save the leg!

I believe it is.
It's so easy to do that even Porsche Centres offer this as an upgrade.

You can find easy-ish diy instructions over on the Renntech forum.

I did it myself - yesterday, as it happens! You need a PIWIS tester for coding the system, and the kit from Porsche is about £330 +VAT. I believe OPC's charge about £500+VAT fitted. My friend Tony at www.wrightune.co.uk charges £400+VAT.

Thanks Mark, sounds like a good mod

You beat me to the answer so I deleted my reply. Richard is correct with the prices.

(Richard you are meant to be driving you new car not tweaking it.... I knew it wouldn't be long)
