Default Cruse control install?

Anyone here do a cruse control setup on a 04 or 05? or perhaps know where I can find the instructions to do it. I think it is just a plug in install, but not sure.....

Personally, I don't think it's too big a deal. I had mine installed by the dealer since there was a 15% discount at the time of the bike's purchase, but, after looking at the instructions, it could be done by anyone. I'd recommend a HD service manual in order to see the fine points of the idle cable adjustment and the initial calibration. You will also be replacing the left and right hand switches - you'll have to do a partial tank removal (again, the service manual is a must) - the control unit bolts to the side of the battery box. Very do-able, I'm sure. Here's a breakdown of the parts.
