This was easy & gives me total piece of mind. Kudos to Houston Corvettes. Fast shipping & good directions for install! If you havent done this, do it! Its simple & worth it.

Great feeling isn't it? Not only have you elminated a problem, but you did it yourself !! I know exactly how you feel - I did mine a few months back.

I ordered mine yesterday. I've been meaning to get it, but after reading about two people on here in the past two days having the column lock I decided to not wait any longer.

Yeah, I agree it's a great feeling to have it done...just did mine last weekend. I don't have to worry about getting stuck somewhere for the column lock anymore. Also got the CAGS bypass done a few days earlier, and did my first oil change yesterday. I love this car! Jon
