Question 89 xj steering column swap

Someone tried to break into my jeep and in turn destroyed my column. How they didn't get it started is beyond me but that's another story. I have a perfect 89 column all ready to go with keys and all but how easy is it to swap? I've heard some people say there's a few bolts in the engine bay and then a few under the dash and it slides right out. Is it really that simple or what else is involved? Thank you

4(?) Bolts at the firewall, 2 support bolts under dash, a couple harness connections, one bolt on the steering shaft.
I'd pull the front seat, makes it easier.
