Installing Cruise Control

Has anyone installed cruise on a car that didn't come with it? I have explored a kit made but Rosta, but am really interested in the idea of using OEM steering wheel cruise switch.

Cruise?

I have done several balts aftermarket cruise controls, but the way that they are designed they have to be flashed by the dealer for them to work. If you guys want me to check prices on these items I can do that for you. The only thing youll have to do is have the cruise option turned on in your vehicle at a dealer. chris

I read a post earler that a member went to a dearler and they wanted $100 to activate it. Unless you can find someone with access to Tech 2

I considered getting cruise control installed but I never do any traveling so I would never use it.

Why am I not surprised they would charge that much.

OEM steering wheel controls?

I've looked at the aftermarket cruise kits and they are ok, but I would really like to use the factory switch on the wheel. What do I need to get to get cruise on this car. Can I used an aftermarket kit with the factory switch, or what? Anybody done this? Thank You!
