Would I start under the hood or on the interior? How much do I have to remove, how long does it take? Can I remove and replace that rubber part (part #2) without removing anything major (i.e. steering wheel)? Thnaks for hte help guys
It's all done from the interior. Don't jack up the car or even pop the hood. Won't do anything for you.
There is one bolt at the very bottom of the steering column. Remove that bolt, wiggle the steering column off, pull the old boot out, and push the new one in place. Locks in three places. Top of the boot goes in first. It kinda hooks onto the car. Two other clips just lock by pushing hard. You'll see when you look at the old one or the new one.
Do not let the rubber boot make too much contact with the steering because it can easily rip it again.
Line up the steering and put the bolt back in. Don't worry at all about aligning the steering wheel. It only attaches 1 way and will end up in the exact spot you removed it from.
Total time: about 10-15 mins.
