Factory Cruise Control

I have a 93 Splash that I bought new. It has dealer installed cruise control - an additional stalk protruding from the left side of the steering column. Works fine. I now would like to have the controls in the steering wheel and remove the stalk. Seems like all that I would have to do is change out the center pad on the steering wheel with one with cruise control buttons and connect the appropriate wires that go to the column control. Sounds simple. Any flaws to my thinking?
 
As long as you have room for a clockspring behind your steering wheel. This device connects the buttons on the steering wheel to the rest of your truck and still allows you to steer. Most vehicles have them for the horn, you would need to replace the one you have for one that is compatible with what you want. My advice is to get the steering column from a truck that has cc in the wheel and "splice" it into your truck. Be sure to let us know how it goes. Also you may want to do a search here to see if anyone has written anything up on it.
 
Don't think it will be as simple as splicing in a few wires. Steering wheel controls typically use 1 circuit and switch differing amounts of resistance into the circuit to control the various functions. The likelihood of this being compatible with your aftermarket cruise control is very small. If you want the steering wheel controls, swap in the entire factory system. I did it and if I can find the link, I'll add it to this post.
