Smart Fortwo - How to ADD Cruise Control

This will show you how to add cruise control to your Smart Fortwo.

[@voornaamachternaam3003]

In my opinion; the best upgrade every smart owner should need to do!

[@WBSoCal]

Awesome instructional video. I've a pedal controller inserted at the accelerator. Guessing it would work regardless.

Great video, could you please post the website you were able to purchase this from? Thank you👍👍👍👍

Sadly I’ve tried searching e-Bay and no luck finding any type of product for a cruise control kit for a Smart Car. It would really help if you could post the brand name of the product and any contact information, thanks.👍

Cruise control is worth the work. Pedal wiring surprised me, figured it was all in the column and speedo. Weird how this is not a standard item in this era

[@ToyotaGR86Performance]

It cost $500 from eBay to buy the kit and about 1 hour of work for you. On a $10,000 car it’s not really worth it IMO.

Did you originally have paddle shifters on your car? Or did you install steering wheel with paddle shifters? Also, did you make a video if you did?

[@ToyotaGR86Performance]

Mine came with the paddle shifters.

[@hoseaembury2071]

I want to install a paddle shifter steering wheel on mine, but I don’t know if the wiring is there or not. So I was wondering. thanks!

[@ROBSOLUTELY]

I just bought this to install on my 2012. Have you had any issues with it? How do you like it overall? Hoping I made a good choice to get Cruise on mine.

[@ToyotaGR86Performance]

She takes a little getting used to it but it works just fine. Sure $500 is a bit of money but if you’re going to keep the car for a long time and it’s totally worth it.

[@rjb1237]

This looks identical to the kit I’m about to install in my 2008 cabrio. But mine has an led indicator i need to install in the dash by drilling a hole. That’s the part that I’m worried about going wrong.

[@omsa4000]

Thank you very much for your videos! I learned a lot and I'd like to install cruise control with the help of your video. Is it really plug and play? Or does it have to be activated by a software update or something similar. A friend of mine did this with his Smart 450 and had to get it activated by Mercedes. Just trying to plan the things ahead. Also you wanted to give an update on how it works while driving. I'm very curious about it and would love to see a video about that!

[@ToyotaGR86Performance]

It works fine, but there is no indication of whether or not you are currently in cruise on the dash cluster. There is an optional little light that you can install by drilling through your dash and it will light up letting you know when cruise has been activated. It works just like any other cruise control. It’ll speed you up to get you to speed, and it will stop accelerating when you reach speed. It’s nothing fancy. Yes, it is simply plug and play. All it does is give a signal to your accelerator pedal and tell it where to stop. Very simple system no software programming needed at all at the dealership.

great vid btw

[@MrMr123]

How do you get to the tweeters at the front of the dash?

[@ToyotaGR86Performance]

Are you referring to the tweeters on the doors near the dash? Those were custom installed by me and you have to takeoff the interior door panel to put those in. I am not aware of any tweeters that are on the dash itself. If your vehicle has them, that is news to me. I would assume you would have to pull the dash out in order to replace them, unless they have a plastic cover on top that you would unclip.

[@PtReforms]

Works only on 451 or more new?

Only the 451.

[@ToyotaGR86Performance]

No, it does not interact with the dash in my 2015. Maybe in previous years it might, but in my 2015 Passion it does not interact with the dash.

Soon as i installed this on my 2008 ForTwo, i got an engine light with the codes P0204 C0400 and C3200 Oddly, the first is a cylinder 4 injector... on a 3 cylinder car?

[@ToyotaGR86Performance]

You shouldn’t get any codes, so you may have either installed it incorrectly, or you might’ve damaged some wiring during the installation.

[@SandyToesDetecting]

When I did my 450 some years ago I got the control stalk, I then had to take car to garage with merecedes software to activate the function. I now have 451 but no cruise.

[@ToyotaGR86Performance]

But now you can have cruise again. ^_^
