Default shifter cable remove & replace

Yes Sir: Has anyone changed the shifter cable on a 1990 automatic, without dismantling the whole car? Is there a simple solution or is it just start removing until you get it. LOL Thanks, I appreciate Gene

Hey Gene, I have a '92 that is ripped apart in my driveway ( with a broken shifter cable), and I'm wondering the same damn thing.... I removed my head unit, climate controls, dummy light cluster, the top part of the dash, both knee bolsters, and every screw, nut and bolt that would obviously hold it in. It's still being stubborn and I've managed not to break anything yet. It would seem I have to rip the whole dash out to get under the plastic enclosure for the head unit to gain access to the grommet with the 3 bolts that hold the shift cable in place. Needless to say I haven't been able to come across any useful write ups... Hopefully we can get this thread started again, I'm frustrated...
