the little plastic collar needs to go further up the column than how you have it at the mo, this then sits inside the rubber grommet thing that is held in place by the hole in the plate CP16, these are available for £4 off ebay if you haven,t got one.
i have a few pics of how i extended my column down to the coupling on the steering rack,
i,ll find them & post them up.
and no you are NOT asking too many questions, thats the purpose of the forum, i would be lost without the answers of the lots of questions i,ve asked.
cheers
