Default switch housings

I have a 06 roadking with cruise control. Looking for chrome switch housing for the new handlebars I am fixing to put on. I can find housings that are for cruise AND radio or just radio.

What I am trying to find out is if the just radio housings would be the same as what I need for my just cruise control .

There are some aftermarket ones with levers ,master cylinder , housings and all for less than half what Hd wants. Might be one of those you get what u pay for deals , it may not ?????

I still would like to know if radio and cruise housings are the same or not.

Assuming you're talking about the right side, the slots go a different direction for radio and cruise. The cruise goes forward and back, the radio goes up and down. The slots are rectangular, the cruise is horizontal, the radiois vertical.
