steering column

I am putting in a tilt steering column from a mid 80s blazer and was wondering what I can do to cover the key hole and shift opening on the column. I plan on using the stock key (in dash) and mounting the automatic shifter on the floor.

Thanks
Mark

Re: steering column

You'd be way ahead to sell that column, and get one out of a 72 - 81 chevy/GMC van. They are very close to being a direct swap, and very few could ever tell it was not a stock piece.
the one you have has the issues you mentioned, and also it is larget in diameter too if i remember right.
