Default '02 LS430/telescoping steering wheel

I'm wanting to "turn off" my telescoping steering wheel, but my local dealer says that is not an option on the 2002. Does anyone know if this is right?

I don't think you can completely disable it (make switch inoperable), but the auto retract/extend feature should be able to be disabled.

That's what I thought as well. But they are saying the 2002 (and only the '02) cannot be disabled.

I wish we had another dealer around here. I would rather stick ice picks in my eardrums than to have to deal with these tools.
