I'm also looking for the extra gauge holder in the center console. The Gauges are not so special, VDO or Volvo Gauges are enought for sell..

Bump. There was never a factory cruise control option. A universal aftermarket system is probably the easiest option. Try eBay...

ok thought there might have been, because there is a black spot to put the pick up coil in the back of the eye piece.

Thanks

You've lost me a little with your terminology there...you mean in the rear of the speedo? If so...I know what you mean. This was utilised on the 400 series cars with mech speedos, but not on the 300 series....if memory serves correctly.

cheers

yeah thats right, could i use the pickup coil from a 440, and use a 440 cruise ontrol kit, its just a thought, whats your thoughts about it.

Ah...yes...I think Adam (340GLT) spotted this, too. It sounds good to me..although I imagine that cruise control kits for 400s with mechanical speedos are quite rare

cheers

could one from a 1994 440GLT, be used.

I think it would need to be an earlier 440...but I'm not exactly sure which ones had cable speedos.

cheers
