High Idle Mod ?

I saw one of the posts for the high idle and I was wondering if there was an easy way to do it like on the 6.0s. I have a 6.0 and did it on my truck and my friend has a 7.3 and was wanting to do it on his truck. On my 6.0, you just connect one un-used wire to one end of the switch and 12V to the other end and there you go. On the 7.3 write-up I saw, it looked pretty in depth. Is there an easier way?

Add a DP Tuner they can make it simple. I dont think it is as easy for the 7.3 as for the 6.0 to do the cheap and easy.
