The easiest thing to do is buy the Dakota Digital CRC-1000 cruise control. All the wires match up and you will have it working in a few hours. It is that easy to plug-n-play.

Unfortunately, I was told the Rostra kit cruise control and the DD are the same. Yes, the actual box with the electronics is the same, but everything else is different. I basically had to rewire the Rostra cruise to match the DD kit. The two kits use different plugs and a different set-up. The Rostra works fine if you have a newer vehicle running the complete canbus/brake system from OEM. The DD kit uses your brake switch (and clutch if you have a stick), and a few other variables to make the cruise work.

I thought I could save almost $200 by going with Rostra, but all said and done, I was probably about $50 ahead with no warranty.
