Default Steering Column Swap help needed

So, my 2001 cherokee was recently the subject of an attempted theft. It was unsuccessful due to the skim. I am replacing the entire column with a donor. The question is I cant find a column that has skim, I have the new factory skim to install but cannot find a column with skim. From what I have read it is possible to install skim on any cherokee from 99-01, Will the new donor column accept the skim unit since my jeep is already set up for it or will it not have the proper wiring? I have til monday-tuesday to pick a column and get it ordered. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Well, I will see tomorrow night after I pull the old one and see what wiring harnesses go where. I will let you all know and hopefully this will help someone in the future.
