How do I create an installer for Visual Studio 2008 addin?

I have done an addin (in C#) for visual studio, (almost) ready to deploy it. But I don't know how to do an installer for that.

I saw the link here but I don't know where to go from there...

This seemed to be useful, but I don't understand where to start, put which code snippet where...

Can someone guide me from the basics? Can't find the resources online I want :(

Wix is a great tool to deploy:
