    I've had a decent amount of play in my steering wheel since I bought the car in 2018. Recently I decided to find what was causing it and here is what I found. From what I've been able to find on the internet, this is all the intermediate steering shaft. I was wondering if any of y'all have replaced this on your own and how much it cost ya. Thanks in advance!

    not a bad DIY, just keep steering wheel from spinning with a bungee or you will tear wire inside
    maybe a 2 hour job at best
    If you get aftermarket some will have universal length and be loose, so install set screws after setting length
    better to get OEM
