    It's right up near the top of your brake pedal. Get on your back on the floor and look up there with a torch and you will see it. But I think you will just need to tap into the brake switch wire for cruise, no need to install a new switch.

    i think that with the factory cruise they install a separate switch - as you said (not_an_abba_fan) at the top of the brake pedal near the brake lamp switch - for safety i think..... cheers

    I think the switch is on a slotted bracket that you can slide back and forth.
