What kind of wire is necessary, I have a radioshack and a homeimprovement store nearby (and a wallyworld,) I don't know if any of them sell durable wiring-- maybe the home improvement store for inwall wiring.

Did your radioshack, local parts store actually carry resistors?

Any advice from someone who has completed the install is great!

Thanks :)

The clutch switch can be bypassed, but it's pretty easy to forget and touch the clutch while in cruise control mode.

For the wire, any stranded 18 to 20 AWG wire is fine.

Radioshack will probably have the resistors as part of a multipack.

If you want to do the OEM stalk method I have all of the parts (stalk, clutch switch, ECM pin, etc.) on hand and can ship overnight or two day if you need them quickly. Here's the link to my DIY for the OEM stalk method:
