Re: anyone with a hurst roll control??? Yes it will work on your car and it actually quite easy to install. Thunder Racing sells a VERY nice kit that makes everything go right in without any headaches. It is a bit more expensive BUT is well worth the extra cash.

Re: anyone with a hurst roll control??? I installed a hurst roll control on my car using the Thunder Racing pre-bent lines. They fitment on the lines was perfect and it looks almost like a stock application. I didn't want my activation button in the ash tray, so I ended up buying a lighted rocker switch from the autoparts store and installing it right near the hatch-release button. It was a PITA to install the switch (that panel is VERY thick plastic), but the end result is a very inconspicuous switch that you really don't notice unless you're looking for it.
It will not affect your ABS. Why that is listed I have no clue.
Bleeding the front brakes is the only part that really sucks. If you install the switch in the ash tray, it should be a very easy and straight forward install.

Re: anyone with a hurst roll control??? I have one on my car. Very easy to install. But I used some stainless steel brake lines on my install.

Re: anyone with a hurst roll control??? I have a Thunder Racing kit. It works great and was easy to install.
The lines were bent perfectly.
The only problem I had was with the connector for the hot wires and I had a sealing problem on one of the connections.
I had to take the roll control out and put itin a vice and set the line where I wanted it, then cranked it down.
2.5hrs or so. Another 30-45mins to set the button where I wanted it.
I put the button right on top of where you put a cigarette out. It fit perfectly and looks very clean. I used an die grinder to grind the side of it so the button would sit flush.
