How to use Google Apps mail servers with Hostek.com Web Hosting

While these terms may seem confusing simply stated letting the internet know that you prefer to use Google Mail as the primary mail source for my-domain-name.com. To use or continue using Google Mail or other Google Apps requiring custom DNS records, please follow this guide:
For a new domain (my-domain-name.com) not previously purchased:
Choose a hosting plan that meets you're needs, and complete our standard order process.After receiving the email from Hostek.com, containing all the details for hosting including FTP, DNS, and the MOST IMPORTANT, login details for the control panel either our Windows Control Panel (WCP) or Cpanel Control Panel.
For domains previously purchased and pointing to another hosting provider:

Choose MX from the Type drop down
Paste record provided by Google

Google Apps in cPanel
