i really dont want to pull the steering column :?

and bill didn't want to pulll it from the yard. so i know its more work then i want to do on my own with less tools and less help

If you want to get a column for me and help me put it in sure, but after looking at it, it looks a bit harder then doing the dash :?

Unless theres something im missing here... ? :?

Think about it, bandit....the lack of the shifter lever makes it easier for her to climb over the console.

Why? The doll can fold, bend, and deflate. I don't think the console shifter will be a issue....

I just had to change the column in mine, and it really isn't too hard. You don't even need to crawl under the car to unbolt the coupling from the rack. The only thing you would really need to worry about (and it isn't much of a worry) is a new key/resistor combo. But all I had to do was to take the pellet out of the donor column key and replace it with the pellet from the old column key. Works like a charm!

Oh yeah, and *maybe* having to take the wheel off and back on for positioning purposes. I found my new columns wheel is off about 10* from center.
