ok im just needing to verify something, i have a 99 civic that was almost stolen and so of course the thieves broke the ignition and stuff but i temporarily put it back together but now my steering wheel, turn signal and windshield wiper levers all sit crooked. so my question being is do i need to replace my whole column or is there something else that can be done?

 

bump

 

anyone?

 

They may have turned the whole column. Grab a wrench and have a look at it, maybe you can adjust it back. As long as they didn't break your ignition, you should be ok and not need to buy another.

 

hmm i will check it out and see, they did break the ignition though. i already found out how to put my tumbler into the new one though that way i can use the same key but yeah i was just seeing if maybe its fixable or if its literally bent outta shape

 

My96 hatch was broken into a couple weeks ago, i had the same problems. Easy fix, i went to the junk yard, but a whole new steering colomn, steering wheel still attached with all the components for $200. Then spent $30 at the locksmith to have the ignition cylinder work with my original key.

Everything is fixed, aligned and loks and works like it should.

 

ok cool, thats what i was thinking but i just wanted to make sure thanks
