Hill Assist Retrofit

What would it take to retrofit the Hill Assist braking system into an 07 with no Hill Assist? How does this system work?

Different master cylinder? Electronics? Anyone know?

All it would take is a computer flash, which the dealers will not do.

The hand brake will do the same thing, if you keep it adjusted properly.

Really?

Maybe Superchips should add this to their programmer...

I had no idea that was computer controlled. I thought it just hydraulically kept the pedal down or something. lol. I rarely use mine, but it is cool.

....and trailer sway control would be nice. That, too, would be just a flash. Again, the dealers will not do it.
