Been looking around for one...

There is no option for them from the dealer new not sure how they would go selling me one even though we have the glx with Bluetooth, push button start and proximity entry

The only model that came out with cruise was the sport

However I did have a look and they have the light on the dash there for it so I will keep trying

Autobarn in Doncaster would get my vote, those guys are good down there.

VGE should be able to provide something.

Hunt for a genuine OEM as they would have gone through rigorous testing and hence work as it should.

Not sure with the quality (read: absolute lack there of) of aftermarket accessories I'd trust my accelerator pedal to some Chinese cheap electronic bit of kit. I'd have more faith in a brick on the accelerator pedal.

Go to an auto electrician and see what they recommend.
