Tilt Steering Column Swap

So my 99 SE 5spd came with a nontilt steering column, and im wondering if anyone has swapped a tilt vs nontilt steering column? Im sure it's all plug and play but I'm wondering if there is anything else to it,

My old 99 sport had a tilt column, most 97+ XJs I've seen have a tilt column. I just need to know if I would run into any issues swapping a column from an auto into a standard xj
