I need cruise control

I wasn't sure where to ask this question, I hope this is the right section. If not, feel free to move it. Anyhow, I drove my mom's explorer all last week with cruise control, and now I cannot live without it. I never needed it before but not it's a neccessity. So, where can I get a cruise control system for the '95 F-250 in my sig? I am open to stock or aftermarket systems or anything in between. Affordable first, then ease of installation. I am on a limited student's budget. Thank you in advance for your help.

Wrecking yard 87-96 should work.

Make sure you get everything intact for a quick install & plug 'n play

I personally don't trust Whitney, but they do have some stuff that works for a reasonable price, but if you have to send anything back, be damn sure you have proof they receive it. As far as things working, haven't had a problem there, but getting the parts that fit a specific application, haven't had as good an experience, then they claim it never came to them when UPS had the record of it being delivered.

Check out ebay, there are some aftermarket add on systems available there, have as much guaranee if not in some cases more than you will get from a yard. Check some that don't necessarily have a heading for your vehicle, they have more than they are listing sometimes.
