It also has the key in the column, but it has the older style column look and the cruise lever just has a button on the end (I guess to turn it on) and I think it only has one wire coming from it.
My engine and harness is from a 2004 Tahoe (flex-fuel) with 4L60E trans.
I would really like to use the older style column, but I want the cruise functions of the newer column. Would one of your levers work for me in this column?
I hope this made sense.

There are different styles of levers. The int you say is bulky, does it have four wires? If so it will work. If it doesn't have windshield wipers in it, its probably a 3 wire, but you can swap the switch inside the lever out with a newer switch. The older column with the single button can be made to work, but you would have to wire the cruise to be on at all times when the ignition is on, and you would only have the set/coast feature, no resume/accell. If you want all the features to work you would need a newer switch like the ones I have. I have the kind that screw in with a single screw, like your older column, and also the push in type for columns without wipers built in.
