Just took another look at your pic and the other switch is there, hiding in
the background.  You'll need another short piece of hose to connect to it.
The switch dumps the vacuum when the pedal is depressed, cancelling the
cruise.

No.  For manual transmission, both clutch and brake have a cruise control
switch on the pedal bracket.

So in the image, should the T that is shown with an open end have its open
end plugged?

Thanks.
