Actually, the CSE Overlay that you are using is not the same thing as a GControl that can be just plugged into the Maps API. I am curious, are you really wanting to display search results from your Custom Search Engine on your map, or are you wanting to implement a LocalSearch control of some sort, which would provide latitude and longitude information so that you can place markers on the map? If you're trying to do the latter, Petrogad's suggestion should be absolutely perfect. Otherwise, you're going to have to build your own custom control.
