Cruise Control Stalk - '83 T/A

Hey guys,

I have owned an '83 Pontiac Trans-am 5.0 (X Fire) for around 5 years now.

Unfortunately the cruise control stalk has finally gone and I am having a hard time finding a replacement.

All of the available stalks have a two lead cable for the cruise control but mine has three leads!!! but it is not the later stalk as this has a different connector on the end.

I have been doing some digging and it looks like GM (in their infinate wisdom) changed the stalk design for this one year (can someone support this?).

I also live in the UK so if anyone knows of a supplier where I can purchase the stalk from a website it would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Russ.

i don't know if you've checked into it at all, but i know ebay has some. I cannot confirm the wire count or the year coverage, but it's one more place to check if you are familular with ebay and have paypal, most people will ship internationally.

Thanks guys,

I will keep a look out on eBay.

I will also contact Modern Muscle and see if they can confirm the correct one for my model/year.
