my 2008 jeep compass did not have cruise from the factory, will this attach to existing hardware without splicing wires?

The instructions say to run 3 supplied wires from clock spring to ECM, so no splicing, it will be as factory. But my vehicle the wires were already there. I had to trim plastic for switch to fit and install switch. Works great.

I bought it but haven't installed it yet but according to my research it'll fit!!!

Yes, mine did not have factory cruise either (jeep compass, 2007) and this plugged right in after removing the air bag.

Yes, quite well in fact. I purchased mine from Amazon for the 2014 Jeep Compass Sport and it snaps right in to the slots provided in the vehicle's interior. I am very happy with the fit and function.

I concur with what others have said. If factory "button" doesn't fit, you can probably buy a universal one to glue to the windshield. My issue was I didn't isolate the live wire to splice. Eventually found the dome light wire to splice into, but only after wasting an hour or two.

No. The wiring harness is already there from the factory. There are some good videos on YouTube showing the install.

No, it doesnt look like that is the correct one. I always use Curt's website to locate the connector, then order on Amazon because it's much cheaper. Looks like you want Curt 56129 http://www.curtmfg.com/HitchLookup/find?mount=Rear+Mount&year=2012&make=Jeep&model=Compass&style=All#tab=wiring

My tag is always hanging on my rear-view mirror, I never take it down. My compass is not in my mirror, but the wires and mechanism for the compass is there and I have not had any problems at all. I had the same concern, I hope this helps. I have a Jeep.

No wiring needs to be done unless you want to use the breakaway feature which I dont use. I did wire it, ran it along the jeep frame and in the door, very easy.

Yes, that's exactly what I did. There are 2 screws on the back where you attach the wires.

Mine arrived as a replacement to the OEM set. I used the hardware that was original to the Jeep. Fairly standard stuff you could pick up at a local hardware store if you need it.

You have to splice into existing wiring; but no new wiring! Hope this helps

Should fit the compass but not the Cherokee. Advice you to check in Rosen website .

Yes, you will need the splices to connect the additional wire. You can splice without using the specified splices, but I found the splices to be weatherproof whereas splicing using electrical tape is not as good

The harness I used did not have spare wires for those controls. My Jeep does not have steering wheel controls for the radio functions. The only wire in the Metra harness I did not use was for a power antenna.

Not at all...I just used the splice connectors and tied into the factory wires

Yes. You will need to acquire the wiring harness adapter and the appropriate dash board mounting adapter for a clean installation.

The ones I received did not. You either need to reuse or get new hardware. I ended up popping out the bolts with an air hammer and putting new nuts in bolts in because they snapped trying to get them off. (really common with a Jeep Cherokee)
