Buy new unit from dealer and you will see what you have to do, the speedo cable and e-brake cable pass through floor in the same piece. On 88 which I've done and 95 which I own also which is starting to get noisy and I will have to do soon as it is annoying to listen too at times especially when cold but both look basically the same under the dash. One has to disconnect the emergency brake cable by taking cotter pin out of small white plastic pulley pin by gas pedal then taking brake cable out of pull lever just like brakes on a bicycle. You also need to be able to access the back of speedometer gauge to unplug the speedo cable and unscrew the unit from the side of the tranny location dependant on auto or manual trans. Getting it apart is no problem the joy comes in putting it back together. Be prepared to spend a whole afternoon in getting every thing apart and back together with out breaking some thing. The only hard part was getting the e-brake back together in the end. I don't know what the dealer charges to do, I wonder any more at that with many repairs I've gotten into and I ask myself often any more how much is a Saturday afternoon worth.
