2 bolts at the back of the base, and two more at the front that also hold the shift base down, should be able to get away with taking all 4 off, then lifting the shift base up enough to raise and lift the park lever base out.Just make durn sure your brake is NOT set when you do this! When you put the new lever in, get it bolted down, then have someone stand on the brake pedal while you re-attach the cable. That should give you JUST enough slack to get the cable in place. Once everything is bolted down and the cable is on, engage and release the parking brake multiple times to set the adjustment.
