Install crystal reports (if the user choose) on wix project

I'm creating an installer using WIX, and I need to offer the user the option to install Crystal Reports Viewer during the setup of my software.
I saw how to install Crystal Reports using Bundle/Chain, but I can't find an example of how to do the install only if the user chooses (mark a checkbox during the setup).

Can someone please help?
Thanks!

What I have tried:

I tried to run the MSI file from Crystal Reports using a Custom Action but didn't work.
