Just write a five-minute custom action in C or your language of choice and put 
the generated GUID into a property. Actually, you can start with the very 
simple one linked from the first section of 
http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson1.php and then you can combine it with 
the equally simple one in http://www.tramontana.co.hu/wix/lesson3.php#3.3 to 
see how you can put it into a property and use it from WiX.
