Mine is rooted too. The teeth that the ratchet catches on break off over time.
From what I've looked at the removal requires the loosening of a bolt on the side of the trans tunnel (inside the car) and replacement of that mechanism. Might need to loosen the handbrake cable too. |

u have to undo the hand brake cable from under the car, then undo the 2 bolts on the side of the transmition tunnel (found between the passanger seat and the handbrake leaver) DONT FORGET to disconnect the handbrake light wire or u will have some re wiring to do. no it will all slid up and out.
then put the new on in the way it cam e out _________________
