In all seriousness, the steering column is really easy to take apart, just 2 screws to get the cover off, and everything is right there. It shouldn't be too bad. Also, there was a recall on the ignition switches for our cars, make sure you get that taken care of, it's free at any Ford dealer.

Well you do know about the little button on the bottom of the collum that you have to press in to allow it to turn out. I am guessing so since you have quite a few posts on here, but just a thought.
Not on an automatic.
