T-56 conversion, cruise control question
Before I do this install, I know that you need the dakota digital elec speedo conversion, but what do you have to do to make the cruise work? or is it included?
I asked this on the electronice board, but so far no replies, and most of those guys are just looking to add LED's to their dash and minor cutsomization. So hopefully I can find someone here to help
Thanks

I dont have all the specifics, but you should be able to get it to work like the stock setup did if you just run a wire from the correct output of the dakota digital box to the speed signal in on the cruise control computer. This is assuming your car is already set up for an electronic speedo. If your car had a cable speedo with the setup where the cable runs from the tranny to the cruise servo and then back to the speedo (my 82 was this way), then you'll have to get one of those $300 speedo cable drives, or convert the cruise and dash over to electronic speed signal.
