Be careful, that's a replica, the factory one cost 10x as much if not more. I know because I broke mine too and ordered an oem one to replace it.

Since the steering wheel is off, the OP might want to consider the addition of the Steering Damper that's standard on the ISF. It greatly improves steering feel, is not expensive, and will fit nicely into the ISX50 steering wheel.
