Speed sensor wire from dash

I ditched mine too, but I miss it a lot. I take 10 hour trips every so often and I really miss the cruise then. The issue is that the Haltech makes the engine come alive a little faster than the stock ECU, so the cruise was actually unstable (you could feel the car accelerating and decelerating and watch the TPS move significantly on the gauge page). This hurt my fuel economy significantly and finally forced my hand into ditching the 'extra weight'.

Basically, you are wise to remove the stock cruise if you remove the stock ECU.
