From what I understand, it's a fairly easy process. (Haven;t done it myself), but here's Luc's general instructions:

Theres absolutely nothing to it, unless you have a pacesetter shortshifter or other Shortshifter with a diffrent inner diameter than stock, you just pop the old ones out and the new ones in instead..

Then follow the controlrod to the other end where its bolted to the tranny and once again pop the old ones out and the new ones in..

You just need to unbolt two nuts and put them back on again, thats one in each end

Here's what Corksport should have sent you with the parts:
