I installed the CCS100 last October. I bought it here: =
http://www.murphskits.com/product_info.php?products_id=3D422 The vacuum =
servo was installed as Ron described. I connected the cruise control =
cable to the throttle bracket under the dash similar to figure 12 in the =
instructions as Ron did also. I did not use the magnets on the =
driveshaft or the Ford electric speed sensor. The controls signal comes =
from the negative side of the coil. Works really well. You will need a =
switch for the brake pedal and if you have LED brake lights you will =
need a relay.
