Well I wouldn't use them again, find somewhere else or better; like you said read through the "how too's" & do them yourself.....

You need stalk. If its a manual, you'll need clutch switch. But you need ECU enabled, and that needs a real Tech2 machine...

Welcome to the forum.  If the above is a little brief (albeit accurate) try a search on cruise and you'll see many of us have done a diy job. Stalk £30+vat (new) Clutch switch £20+vat (new)  ECU - Vx price usually £40-60 & all you have to undo is three screws and plug it in.
