APDTY 141607 Shift Cable Bushing (Allows Repair Instead Of Cable Replacement)

This is a perfect fit for a Kia Forte 2012 Ex 2.0L. If you do have a Kia forte 2010 – 2012. While this car is off and the negative terminal removed. All you need to do is remove the shift knob and screws around the center console. Specifically 2 screw (1 on each side of the front of the console) then there is 4 screws at the rear of the console (both seats needs to be moved forward to reach the remaining 4 screws on the rear). Once that is removed there is (I promise) last two bolts you need to remove (location main compartment of the center console: remove cover 2 bolts will appear). I believe it’s a 10mm bolt. Anyways once that is removed carefully pry the emergency brake plastic compartment. Once you’ve finished removing the plastic – adjust the shifter to R or N. You can access the “lock release” at the front of the shifter (use a pin or something thin to remove and push down on the “lock release”. The part is expensive but it does save you money too… unless you “MacGyver it”!!!
