After reading the manual it seems the only thing you need to 'activate' the cruise is the stalk, as it serves as the main 'switch' to tell the ECU to turn cruise on... now, the only problem I see is any yarii who do not have the CRUISE light on the dash (mine doesn't). Not sure how that is going to work? I guess you will just have to make sure you know when it's on or off, lol.

BTW, here is the manual if you want to take a look. It's for a sedan but I'm assuming it will be the same for the hatch.

I have the factory cruise control in my 08 US-specs LB, and there is no cruise control light on the dash...

By the way, if this is true I wish I had told the dealership to remove the stalk and cut the price by $300. I rarely use the cruise control...

Cheers! M2
