Yeah, just unbolt the cruise, unbolt everything holding the cable, look under the dash and unhook it from the pedal...

What more were you expecting?

well I figured that much to it the part i was wondering is removal will it just be pull it our or will i have to wiggle it out and what not

Every job on our cars has something that goes wrong. So there may be some "wiggling" .

I heard the hardest part is the clip that holds it to the pedal. It's a pain in the ass. If you aren't going to put the cable back on then just cut it off. If you are, good luck .

There is nothing that is a pain in the ass about disconnecting the cable from the pedal. Take a pair of pliers pull the plastic clip out from the pedal and slide the cable thru the slot, it takes a whole 5 seconds to do. Than you remove the 2 10mm head bolts from the firewall holding it in.

The hardest bolt in this is the middle section where you have a bolt under the wireloom and it took me 15 mins for tyat bolt, tue rest was easy, reinstalling the non cruise cable was super fast

I have just seen a lot of people have trouble with that little clip and not knowing the proper way to get it off. That's why I mentioned it. Overall, really easy job.

It took me less than 10 minutes to pull my old cruise setup and install the non cruise cable. Easy way to get the clip off of the gas pedal is stick a flathead under the clip and pry up. Will pop out easy.
