Default cruise control lever removal?? s203??

i notice s203 does not have a lever for the cruise control, but a botton the sides where the intercooler spray button is at. Very interesting, I really want to move it over because the lever gets in my way! I wonder if anyone catched on to this?

If I remember correctly. You have to remove the airbag to get at it. Then you have a big hole in the plastic surround.

Yes, that stalk is always hitting my leg and turning the cruise control on. It's annoying and I'd rather have the button (and hole) too. subscribed.

Chalk up another person who hates that lever. I'm always smacking my leg into it.....I swear it's going to snap off one of these days.

Never had an issue with mine. But I do -always- straighten the wheels as I park the car.

I do not think that extra button is for cruise control. I believe it is for choosing the automatic spraying function for the intercooler sprayer.
