Ok I didnt specify but I figured you'd know what I meant when I removed "it" from the donor car..so my bad...but I did say I didn't lock it straight lol.

However I did find this...BUT it's for 04-08 clocksprings. I gotta see if I it will work for mine.

"Before you install your new clockspring it must centered following these instructions or it will be damaged when you begin to turn your wheel.

1. Verify the following conditions before centering the SIR coil:
The wheels on the vehicle are straight ahead.
The block tooth (1) of the steering shaft assembly is in the 12 o'clock position.

2. If the front (5) of the SIR coil has a centering window (4), and the back side (2) includes a spring service
lock (1), perform the following steps:
1. Hold the SIR coil with the face up.
2. While depressing the spring service lock, rotate the coil hub clockwise until the coil ribbon stops.
3. Rotate the coil hub slowly, counterclockwise, until the centering window appears yellow and both
arrows (3) line up.
4. Release spring service lock between the locking tab. The SIR coil is now centered.
5. Align the centered SIR coil with the horn tower and slide onto the steering shaft assembly.

3. If the front (4) of the SIR coil has a centering window (3), and the back side (1) includes NO spring
service lock, perform the following steps:
1. Hold the SIR coil with the face up.
2. Rotate the coil hub clockwise until the coil ribbon stops.
3. Rotate the coil hub slowly, counterclockwise until the centering window appears yellow and both
arrows (2) line up. This is the CENTER position.
4. While holding the coil hub in the CENTER position, align the SIR coil with the horn tower and
slide onto the steering shaft assembly.

4. If the front side (3) of the SIR coil has NO centering window, but the back side (2) includes a spring
service lock (1), perform the following steps:
1. Hold the SIR coil with the back side up.
2. While depressing the spring service lock, rotate the coil hub in the direction of the arrow (4) until
the coil ribbon stops.
3. Still pressing the spring service lock, rotate the coil hub in the opposite direction 21/2 revolutions.
4. Release the spring service lock between locking tabs. The SIR coil is now centered.
5. Align the centered SIR coil with the horn tower and slide onto the steering shaft assembly.

5. If the front side (2) of the SIR coil has NO centering window, and the back side (1) includes NO spring
service lock, perform the following steps:
1. Hold the SIR coil with the face up.
2. Rotate the coil hub in the direction of the arrow until the coil ribbon stops.
3. Rotate the coil hub, slowly, counterclockwise, for 21/2 revolutions. This is the CENTER position.
4. While maintaining the coil hub in the CENTER position, align the centered SIR coil with the horn
tower and slide onto the steering shaft assembly."
