$700? ouch, though believable if you've got a 2004 Echo. The Yaris uses drive-by-wire so the cruise control is entirely computer controlled. With the Echo they'd need to install mechanical controls to maintain the throttle position.
Mine was just a hair over $500 for the third party Rostra cruise which I had removed in the fall when there was an optional recall.
I don't think this DIY will work for you. If you know what you're doing you could probably find the Rostra kit online far cheaper than the dealer wants but you'll be getting your hands dirty installing it.
