Sierra Steering Column Mounting

I didn't like the size if the mounting holes in the column mount so I looked at four Sierras today to see if there was any kind of top hat bush in the upper mount, but none of them were mounted with anything other than an M10 bolt and thick washer.

So I have mounted mine the same....is this ok or should I make some bushes? I know someone on here did on theirs.

If it's like that originally then it must be OK. But I also didn't like this and used bigger diameter bolts.

OK cool, I'll leave it as it is for now, can always put bigger bolts in or make some bushes later.

There is someone on Ebay doing collars for this exact issue now:-

Ebay Link

I had already fitted spacers and large thick washers before he started selling these though otherwise I would have had a set.
