  1. Yes it is a new IG SW. I thought at first the problem was with switch. The original one does the same thing. In this picture I have the column lowered. The switch is hitting the dash in this position. If I could get the switch to align with the hole, the column is still hanging down about an inch. I don't see how this is going to work. It seems that the lock hole should not be pointing at that upward angle.

  2. The steering lock hole on the column and the ignition switch do not line up. It seems that the hole on the column is too high. The ignition switch hits the dash before it get close to the hole. I can force it, but its definitely not in the correct position. This puts it in the wrong position for the steering column cover. When I got the car and took it apart, there was a depression in the dash from the ignition switch pushing into it and no column cover. I am now wondering if the other owner had it forced into place impacting the dash, and could not get the cover to fit. It seems there is only one way the steering column can be installed. I have removed the steering in the past, but I did not disassemble it. Is it possible that the upper half of the column (from the under dash mount) to the driver end has rotated? I believe they are two pieces. But they are locked with a pin or bolt? Any thoughts?
