I was thinking more along the lines of going to a salvage yard and getting a cruise control handle that will bolt right in.

You can use a couple of relays to reverse the switches from normally closed to normally open, but if you dont want to do that, there is only one application that will both work and be a bolt on deal, but they are very hard to find these days. If you're junkyarding though, look for one off a 83-84 Chevy truck, without the wipers on the column. They bolt on and are 4 wire switches. If you cant find that, 81 Chevy vans use the same lever and you can change the swithc inside to a 4 wire. 81-82 trucks have them too. I also have some redone levers from time to time that are already converted and repainted and have new lettering on them so they look new. You would have to PM me about availablity.
