Cruise control switch

I'm using a drive by wire (2003)5.3 in my Blazer and want the cruise to work but I want an original looking turn signal lever. I picked up an original cruise lever with 3 wires but I wont be able to make it work because the "set/coast" switch is normally closed. What I need is a 4 wire switch with normally open switches that does not have the built in wiper lever.
Anyone know what vehicle might have a switch that might work?
Here's the one I bought;

Re: Cruise control switch

I just found LS1nova71's post on this. What an awesome write up and exactly what I was looking for. Amazing at how the internal switch is interchangeable. Looks like I'll be hitting the wreckers next week.
Here's the original write up;

Re: Cruise control switch

Now days I replace the whole wire with one from an early 90's Chevy truck and just solder them directly to the switch. I also have some decal/stickesr with the writing on them if you want to repaint it and make it nice, send me a pm if you're interested.

Not sure what you mean about a decal? do you have any pics?
Thanks
