Retrofit cruise on an S

Has anyone retrofitted cruise control on an S? I know its reasonably easy to do it on a FL1.
I'm guessing you would have to replace the steering wheel.

Been looking at some S autos instead of GS manuals and cruise is the only thing i'd miss on an S

Junior, you rascal, behave! Everyone knows it's a breeze block at 60 degrees.

Seriously, don't know if it can be easily done. The D3 could have a retro audio controls fitted absolutely no problem. Surprisingly never tried out on a FL2, but should work. With the D3 all the fittings were there, just needed the steering wheel insert bit from Ebay at 25 quid. Never heard it done on a FL2 or a D3 in respect of cruise control. One or two asking, but it appears complicated. Ask over on the Disco site, they are really into the LR's in a serious way. some of the pics from those guys show the whole vehicle stripped out down to the shell, scraey stuff. Wiggs is your man on there for the likes of that.
