Message The bolts used to clamp the ignition barrel to steering column are shear bolts, and once tightened the head shears off so they cannot be undone.

I want to tighten the barrel to the steering column. Either by tightening the bolts, shimming it, or removing the shear bolts and replacing with normal ones.
