This works great for me, but it's not as much clearance as the original tilts. I like my upgrade more, but hey, it's MINE! And to answer your other question, the steering wheel is about the same distance from the dash and seat as the original - within an half inch. I could have moved it a little closer or farther away if needed.
thanks now i have more options besides spending almost 1000 dollars on a column and intermediate shaft
