It is actually far less work to install the OEM one than the Rostra one, but on Yaris prior to 09, you would not have any indicator (unless you used the indicator module that I build for DIYers). I don't believe that swapping the cluster alone would make the indicator work, as I've found that the 07 and 08 ECMs don't send the CAN bus messages to the cluster for turning the cruise indicator(s) on.

What type of kit do you make? I want cruise on my 08 manual
liftback. Would be nice to have OEM type install.

I don't make a complete kit, but I do make a device that provides an indicator for 06-08 Yaris, which don't have the indicator on the cluster. The link below is a FAQ that I put together to pull all of the info together. It has info about my indicator module:
