Hi Martin,

to fit cruise control to a cupra r, you need the stalk, an extra loom, and a custom made loom to link to the ecu plug. AMD in essex fitted cruise to my LCR fro £200ish.

Hope that helps.

it's a shame it requires the ECU to connector block loom, but £200 is a good price to fit

I did my parents octavia last weekend in under 2hrs, but didn't include the additional loom - £65 parts from VW teeside via ebay.

I'm sure the additional loom must be available as a spare though

A later genuine switch which has the rocker switch on the side is £44.46+VAT. We supply and fit cruise on the MK1 Leon for £149+VAT retail (which includes all labour, switch and loom etc)

AMD made the loom on mine out using normal small gauge wire and ecu connector pins for the ecu plug (bought from seat).

Skoda do a kit for the Octavia 1.8T which would be the same.

However you still need VAG COM to activate it and be comfortable with taking the airbag off.

that is the old style stalk, the new one has a rocker switch to adjust speed on the end of the stalk. i can almost guarantee that will not come with the 4 wire loom that i'm talking about; this loom is only not present on cupra r's. It is present on cupras (same 180 engine code as vrs) and diesels, but not on the R. I searched for ages when getting CC fitted for someone selling the relevant loom, but in the end let AMD fit it and they made up the 4 wire loom themselves.
