cruise control 1 month review,with following year update reviews., November 21, 2006
This review is from: Audiovox CCS100 Universal Vacuum Cruise Control (Automotive)
I installed this system into my 99 vw jetta, as a replacement for the poorly operating vw system. I have had the system in now for about 1 month. So far i am very impressed with it, i did not need the magnet kit just tapped into the factory speed signal. The directions were clear, and good, i also had some hook up problems, and called tech support and they knew the product and knew what to check for very helpful. The system takes about 3 or 4 seconds to set, speed stays within 2 miles an hour as they advertise. There are 7 switches inside the controller to change speed change sensitivity and other options. Overall for the money, its a great way to install cruise control.
update- Its been just over 2 years now since the system has been installed and i have had no problems.
i drive 80 miles a day mon-fri and religiously use cruise control.
This system is worth the money and has proven so over the last 2 years.
Probally around 40k miles since i installed it.
UPDATE- 11/27/09 system is still going strong with no problems. I use it daily mon-friday on my commute to work.
3rd update- 1/30/12. system is still installed and working in my car. I have had a few times where it was not working fully and was tempermental but its ok now . One time i removed the unit and used shop air to blow out some of the corrosion inside the circuit board and it started working ok again. 144k on the car and system was installed at approx 65-68k area.

Worth much more than the price....I love it!, October 29, 2006
This review is from: Audiovox CCS100 Universal Vacuum Cruise Control (Automotive)
I've installed this on my motorcycle. It is very easy to install and works flawlessly. You must make a small vacuum chamber out of PVC pipe on a motorcycle to keep it working smooth and instantaneously. It should work on any bike, but it is best that you research your bike on the forums on the internet. They will have much more detail specific to your bike to make it easier to do.

VERY HARD INSTALL, August 24, 2007
This review is from: Audiovox CCS100 Universal Vacuum Cruise Control (Automotive)
The unit works fine once you can find out wich wires to place it to.
I put this on a brand new 2007 Ford Ranger 2wd 4 cyl. 2.3L automatic trans pickup. The bigest problem was getting a Ford Dealer that would let me look at their schematics. POO POO on most Ford Dealers. Thank you Henry S Day Ford. With these trucks there is no dedicated Tach wire since it is sent to the dash digitally. (WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT) I found a coil wire that was from the PCM to the coil. on Connector C175E pin #12 the wire is white in color. This connector is located behind the engine on the firewall there are 3 large connectors in a row E far left B center and T to the right. The VSS is located on connector C175B Pin #1 wire color Violet and Orange. Brake wires at break pedal Purple and white for the purple wire and purple and red for the red wire.
I would have been a lot faster to install if the manual was up to date but it ended at 1995? once installed it works like a champ.
