Broken shift indicator cable

Hi all,

The shift indicator cable broke. Looks like the PO put in a screw as a pivot / routing point for the cable. Cable should go from the spring/indicator to the pivot point to the column.

Where can I get a replacement cable and what's the right fix for that pivot point?

That clip slides over the plastic ear that is on the cluster housing & then the cable goes thru a slot just above that.

I don't have a pic of it installed.

Maybe someone else will chime in

Never heard back from him. He had asked me if I had the other parts to that selector. I said no, just the cable

Sorry about that.

I found the whole selector at LMC for $16. My apologies for not getting back to you...
