Anyone got a picture of the cruise control ECU fitted to a RHD?

Trying to put Matt's Sport back together the other day and we was stumshed as to how it fitted back in... (Matt removed it and forgot :roll: )

Its been annoying me since and I cant seem to find a picture of it anywhere.

it goes above the glove box latch. It is tight and fiddely if you doing it with the dash fitted to the car like doing a retro fit

Factory fitted cruise the loom runs along the dash with the dash loom, OBC loom or what ever else is fitted from factory

Thank you Simon, clear as day now. I've removed one in the past from a LHD and remember it being on the driver side of that. I just assumed it would be the driver side of the RHD.

If only we knew that on Sunday pre dash refit, better show Matt so he can get it fitted before we go over again! :D
