Re: Cruise control bracket location?

Phil, I had a lot of trouble retro-fitting mine. If the car came from the factory with cruise installed the actuator mounting bracket was welded to the inner wing.

I've got one but it is still in the box. I bought various books on "how to" but not ventured that far yet.
