This shifter cable is GONE. I haven't looked yet but was wondering how do I replace them, and also where is a good place to buy them.

They got delivered the next day. Pretty good for free shipping.

Installation isn't complicated, but a little physically demanding. There's only 4 retaining clips (2 in interior, 2 in bay). Also pull the corresponding cotter pins. And there's a couple 12mm nuts that hold the bracket and grommet to the firewall. Those can be accesed by pulling the driverside lower interior panel. Once everything is loose it's just a matter of wiggling the old ones out and the new ones in. Pull them out from inside the car, not the bay. Be sure to keep the bushings from your old shifter cables, if they're any good. I had the Torque Solutions bushings and they never seem to go bad because of how solid they are.

Hopefully this helps somebody.
