There should not be any functional difference. You will need to decide what to do about the key. Unless you are real lucky, it won't have the same resistance pellet for VATS.

Sure, they work on that column, but if the resistance of the pellet in the key is not the same as yours (1 in 15 chance), VATS will lock you out. Chances are that you will need new keys made with the physical profile of the replacement column key, but key pellet value of what you have now. Just trying to head off the next question that you might post "replaced column, now starter won't engage and car won't start-security light on".
