just fixed my wobbly column pics included

Hey guys best thing I could have done this thing was bad.

First pic is how I got the steering column pins out the screw broke on the 6th pull your luck may vary but that is all I needed was 3 tries.


this second pic shows the top two E-8 inverted torx screws I put red thread lock on them the bottom left one was a little tricky to get to so I just tightened it in.

In this pic I circled the Ignition retainer screw


this pic shows the reason i had to remove the column (may be hard to read)


this pic shows some more important things that held me up for a couple extra minutes


This last pic shows my "extra" part there was also another piece similar to it , I'm pretty sure that everything works though. the high beams are stuck on but I think that is because I didn't find the spring until yesterday lets see if they turn off when I reinstall the spring. ANY CLUE WHAT THIS IS FROM?

that "extra part" should have gone on the piece right near the ignition, it makes it so the car beeps when the keep is in or something, when i did mine we put it in wrong so it beeps when i open the driver door.

well I'm sure that it is meant to beep when you open the door (if the key is in or the lights are on) but it does beep with the key in and it didn't before but it is a little sketchy on when it wants to beep.
Thanks for the help that is one of the easier things to do.
