Default Stupid Question Please Help

I just recently purchased a 99 coupe and it has almost all the options except for active handling. Now what im wondering is how can i get active handling installed just like stock without going to the dealer and having them charge me an arm and a leg for whatever they do. Or is their a way i can get it activated another way i really want to get it. Im open for option and opinions

THANKS

I think you may be out of luck. You would need a computer change (I don't know if this could be accomplished through a reprogram only). I would guess that on non AH cars they left out the yaw rate and other sensors needed, so these would have to be put in.

You should have abs so the wheel speed sensors are present.

Maybe someone else has other input.
