Thats a good question! Lets see what all the car guys say but....I had a few stick shifts in the past and looked into doing that but never found it could be done. Maybe today's technology will allow it but I don't think so.

Simple. Use a cruise control brake switch (which has an extra normally closed contact) in place of the original brake switch and mount a similar switch for the clutch pedal. This will take some minor fabrication, but is not that difficult. Series connect the two switches to provide power to the cruise control. The two switches act as interlocks to cut out the cruise when the brake pedal is depressed OR when the clutch pedal is depressed. The normal cruise control latching circuit (set button) in the aftermarket cruise control should the take care of turning it back on.
