Cruise control retro?

I just found out I got none. Can't find anything comprehensive on this matter. I'm planning on swapping MFSW from a wreck. What else will I need to do.

nothing. You do not need the dealer to activate it.

Just disconnect the battery when taking out the steering wheel(air bag).

I am in the same boat with a plain SW. I thought an upgraded slip disk was needed for the MFSW to work? I am wrong? Thanks.

hmm... Ok, not sure, but it should be pre-wired. There is a steering wheel retrofit instruction around ( http://www.angelfire.com/myband2/ds/3543en.pdf ), but it maybe for euro models.
