Perhaps someone else can correct me if I'm wrong but that doesn't even look like any Dodge cruise control I've ever seen. The Neon cruise, and pretty much every Dodge cruise vaccum control unit I've seen is a round bell looking item with a cone shape leading to where the cable dispenses. That looks like a personal install done really badly, someone should have used cable heat shielding and zip tied the cables across the top of the spark plug wires, hell I can't believe that even works there, are those wires really draped RIGHT over the turbo???

Factory cruise can be installed on the SRT-4 as long as the car has the stock ECU or stage 1 ECU, but not stage 2 or 3 because the portion of the ECU that controls the cruise is dedicated to the 'toys' packages for 2 and 3. Not all the features work though, can't coast and I believe you can't resume, but you can set the cruise and that's enough for some. I'd guess about half a dozen owners installed the factory cruise on their cars, but it took some real ingenuity as far as how to connect the cable to the stock throttle body, because there is only one cog and that's for the throttle cable.

The factory cruise control is located at about 4 o'clock on the steering wheel on a little lever on the back side of the steering wheel itself. Is that what the car has in it? If you want I'll take a picture of mine, I have the cruise installed, I'm working on getting the cable hooked to the throttle body in a neat manner, that looks factory, that's the tough part.

If you really do want to get rid of it, read this thread about How To Install Cruise Control and do the steps in reverse. Also, someone on here may want to buy the setup if it really is a Dodge factory cruise, but somehow I doubt it is one.

Its def from the factory.
