C5 ATM shift cable replacement
I've owned my C5 for almost 10 years. It's been mostly garage kept and has less than 40k miles. In the past year I have numerous component failures...Windshield wipers, horn, climate control actuators, drivers side door lock and most recently the grommet on the top end of the shift cable. There's a good thread on replacing the bushing on the cable with a part from Autozone but the little plastic pos breaks if you are not careful. I got a good deal on a new cable on ebay from a chevy dealer in West palm Fla. 63dollars shipping included. I read a thread here about replacing this cable without dropping the exhaust system and removing the tunnel cover. Has anybody else had success doing the repair this way? Any pointers would be appreciated

What's the url for your thread on replacing the cable? I sawa thread somewhere mentioning that someone has metal replacement ends for the cable. Do you know anything about that?
