Put steering column in last night, will fit combo switch and new boss kit and wheel tonight, align it central..

Listen to some tunes while I'm doing it.

First time I've ever used a torque wrench and I must say its pretty good feeling when u torque up to spec knowing its 100% legit.

Benefits
- No play in steering column
