Sure can and its very easy to do !!!!!
Fitting switches to the steering wheel is a quick job - search the site as its well documented.
Will need an enable which wither TFC or Wiggs can do, PM them as they roam the UK so can come to you. LR dealer would not do it as its not part of the intended spec level for the GS
8) mod well worth doing

On your car it may well work by just plugging it in, so try it first,

Sorry to resurrect this post, but is it the same process to replace the switches on the D4 as it is on the D3? Just about to order a new D4 and trying to decide whether to add Cruise as an option or do it myself (did on my original D3). If its just as easy, I'll keep the money in my pocket rather than give it to the stealer...
Cheers

D3 is fit & enable, the D4 works on a LIN not resistive ladder - waiting for Autologic to complete the real world cause & effect testing before offering it as an upgrade but when they do you can be sure there will be no unintended consequences - and it won't turn your D4 into a 2.5 tonne paperweight

A bit of an old post but ive just seen it, i fitted crusie to a D4 non cruise car in December with no problems so it is available if still needed.
And it wont turn your car into a paperweight all those simple tests were done 7 months agao on my own developement car.

Pete,
Looking at fitting my cruise to my D4 GS and have acouple of questions:
Do you have the part numbers for the switches?
Is a simple case of plug and play or does it need enabling in the software?
Finally if the above is yes, do you have some simple instructions on how to do it?
Many Thanks 2018 D5 3.0 HSE Lux

Had cruise done today at Bell Autos, what a smashin job. Just like OEM with all the display warning etc. and a great saving over an added option on new build.
I`m actually looking forward to my 5 hour journey to Devon now on Friday, the angle of my foot on the pedal gave me ankle ache
Thanks again!!!  Cars:-MY11 Evoque SD4 Pure, MY12 Defender 90 XS & MY08 Evo X RS
