Installation Notes and Tips

Review the service manual before installation, especially for anti-theft system procedures on affected Pontiac, GMC, and select Chevrolet applications. Some listings require programming or have specific steering-column notes, including the 1997 Chevrolet Astro, which is not compatible with vehicles equipped with a tilt wheel, and the 1996 GMC Safari with tilt steering wheel and black finish. Verify column configuration and anti-theft requirements before beginning service.
