Default cruise control

I have got a new to me 2013 Electra Glide classic. It does not have cruise control. My question is can I install (switches and control box) an electronic cruise controll? Or is that a hige pain and just stick with a friction lock on the throttle? I have had cruise control on previous bikes and use it alot. Any information is appreciated.
Thanks, Dan

It's a bit of work, but not too bad, need Harley kit 77196-08.

Not much help here , but a friend of mine recently put cruise on his 12 Road King , he did mention it was time consuming , but with a little patience , it was pretty easy .
