Adding custom Prerequisites to Visual Studio 2010

While developing my Joinup Outlook Add-In with Visual Studio 2010, I intended to add my own Prerequisite to the Installer Project (yes, VSTO solutions do need quite a few of those..).
I did find information about how to add them to Visual Studio, but not about 2010.
So here it is, prominent actually, but due to a pretty different folder path to previous VS versions, I mistakenly thought this to be the wrong information.

In short, Custom Prerequisites go here:
\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages
