1971 Buick, All, Ignition Lock, Uncoded (NOS) new old stock. Group 2.188 Part #399094

[Boscoe]

Over at the V8Buick forum there's been a discussion about installing a tilt wheel column in a Skylark that came without it and a couple of people have said that an ignition switch specifically for a tilt column will be required. Check this link:

Is the same true for Centurions? I want to find a tilt column for my car. There's an ignition lock on eBay right now? Is that the same thing? Is there somewhere I can look up the part number (Group 2.188 Part #3990946) and see if this is what I'll need? Here's the link:

Thanks, guys, for answering my dumb*** questions.
