It can (and has been ) done in the UK, but you will almost certainly have to source all the parts from the USA (cruise was never an option in the UK). You will need (and this is by no means an all inclusive list)
the vacuum pump,
Vacuum switch
ECT ECU
Steering column control switches
Actuator
Actuator cable
All the wiring is already in place on a UK car, I traced it all out a couple of years ago http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/jimilawson/Various/cruise%20control%20wiring.html
Have a read of this thread on imoc,from page 3 onwards it give details of how Neil (flippin'eck) retrofitted cruise control to his MK1 :cool:

Just noticed that you have an import, I can't say for certain that the wiring will be present on an import, but it will be relatively easy to check using the details from the link to my website.
