Good to know. The job itself seems straight forward but the 2 areas I was thinking that could possibly create some delays were getting the new cable through the firewall grommet and getting hung up somewhere along the cable's path & potentially breaking off old brittle clips as I try to pull it through.
Did you feed the new cable starting from inside the cabin, through the firewall grommet & go into the engine bay or did you start in the engine bay, go through the firewall grommet & then into the cabin?

I'm just straight out of time for additional projects with my schedule right now, so things that hit snags cost me too much time that I don't have at the moment. Let me know how it goes!

I'll for sure update this thread with the outcome. I took some pics of the broken plastic piece on the cable that I've been meaning to post but trying to edit the size of my pictures on my mac takes forever & anytime I post a pic from my iPhone it turns out HUGE or upside down. When I get a hold of a PC I'll post some pics. I plan to do this next weekend as long as I'm able to pick up the cable and a few additional parts. I put some JB weld on the the broken plastic piece earlier today but I have a feeling it won't hold up very well. I'm going to let it cure 24 hours before I assemble everything. We'll see how it goes...
