Unfortunately, the WiX toolset does not provide a standard CustomAction to support this scenario today. Thus you'd need to write your own. Writing CustomActions a bit of reading the MSI SDK to understand all the scenarios. In your case you want to use Properties to pass the data in and out of the CustomAction. Good luck.
