hello

I need a column for an airbag car with tilt. are the columns interchangeable?

I know that the earlier models would not have the yellow airbag wire going throught them but besides that are they the same?

thanks

Is it interchangable if I'm not using the stock steering wheels with the airbag and sensor?
