I bought an ebay cruise control switch thinking the same thing, as I have the absolute base model. My Nissan nv 2500 is so basemodel it doesnt even have a chip in the starter key. Since I had to change the airbag anyway, I added this switch to the existing vehicle and the cruise control seems to work like it was factory. now it is possible that before the the van was crashed before i had it they had changed the steering wheel completely and opted for a base model wheel. There was a harness connect inside the wheel that the switches hooked to.
I have a 2012 NV2500 and used 2014 switches. things seem to work fine.
