So the original came out fine. But the new one is stuck somewhere, I looked at tunnel pics and there isn't a break in the tube, or is there?
I pulled the rear tunnel access panel and pull the shifter out of the way but I don't really see anything The worst part is I cannot even pull the new one back out, it is stuck somewhere and I don't want to yank or push too hard to F things more. I thought this was a easy project but dammmmm |

usually gets stuck in the mild curve at the back just in front of the backpad. If you remove the rear access plate and put a large pry bar against the top of the curve of the tube and just flex it a bit while someone is tugging on the cable it will probably come out. Make sure that you lubricate the tube before trying another installation
