MACK wrote: Thu May 18, 2017 11:01 pm A couple of questions that spring to mind other than what Mike's mentioned are;
1) will it even fit the mounts/cowling properly?
2) will the wiring plug in the car fit?

I would have thought the answer to these would be no, but without trying....
I think the zed stalk's only about £60-70 new so if the x5 one is a straight fit/plug and play ok fair enough, but anything awkward/fiddly and surely its not worth the hassle.
In terms of physical fitment it's spot on. Exactly the same method as a standard cruise.

Wiring I know will be different. But I'm hoping it's just swapping some wires from the connection block and then it's 'plug and play'.

Im not sure its as easy as that.
This will have (i guess) 2 functions as a paddle, Forwards and backward.
The Cruise Control stalk has: Forwards and backward, up and down, plus the button (to return to previous speed).
