my shifter lever just broke off in my hand. It was somewhat still attached so I managed to get it back into park(Lucky). Then I took off the bottom part of the steering column, and then the bottom part of the dash to see what was going on. It broke where the mechanism attaches to the inside of the steering column. One screw actually had snapped. I then took off the top part of the dash and then the top part of the steering column so I could access the mechanism more easily. From there you can access and remove the mechanism. Quite a few snap-in parts along the way that a small screwdriver can take care of. It is kind of a pain in the butt, and I still need to find out how one part of the mechanism detaches from the actual shifting cable. I ordered the part so when it comes I hope I will be able to figure out the rest. Hope that helps a little.
