Lightningrod,
My CRII does not have the chevy steering column. It doesn't tilt, doesn't have the ignition on the column either. Unfortunately I don't know what it's from because it was already installed when I purchased in '04. I think the measurements are about the same as far as length from what you describe. It has the VW turn signal hub. My ignition switch is on the dash and also a starter button. Look at Ididit products. They seem popular among the hot rodders.

Good luck
John
