Then pull the inner part of the center shaft and cut off a couple of inches and put it back in. The plastic pins just keep the inner shaft from sliding around when it's out of the car. They don't do much in a collision......just sheer off.
Re-drill and re-pin for safety. Use some hot glue and or both with a nylon pin to reset it. Some disassembly is required! Assuming the structural of the column housing is in tact!
