I tried it and it didn't work too well. I had three aftermarket transmission shifter brackets, and between them, I managed to get it to either shift from reverse to 2 low, or park to drive. The problem with the stock cable is that it is not adjustable for length. I am going to buy the B&M cable, which is adjustable. I already have the B&M shift lever.

1) buy index shifter 2) buy new shifter wire 3) remove old shifter wire 4) remove old shifter(may require grip removal) 5) install friction shifter(if needed, install grip) 6) run new shifter cable 7) clamp cable at derailer as the derailer will have gone slack when you removed the old cable, make sure the shifter is in the right position to pull cable when you clamp the new cable in place. Trim & crimp excess cable, go ride your bike. Note:if your bike have integrated brake and shift levers you either have the choice of getting new brake levers as well, or continue to use the old but with the shifters disconnected.

What are possible causes for your 97 Saturn sl1 to slip out of third gear?

Could be your shifter cable has stretched and you need to replace it? On my 1995 Saturn SL2 I could not keep the shifter in 3rd gear. I replaced the tranny with one from the junkyard and the problem still persisted. I talked to Saturn and they said it was my shifter cable. I installed the shifter cable and the new tranny goes into 3rd gear without any problems. Please use this as an FYI. It was time consuming and expensive to replace the shifter cable, but a lot less expensive than the tranny. Hopefully it is something simpler for you.
