Theres nothing to it. Only hard part is getting under the dash in behind the lever. Other than that you just have to run the cable.

you just have to adjust the latch mechanism. all the spring does is pop it up enough so you can get your fingers in there to open it the rest of the way. I havent done this on an f-body before, but have on other vehicles, so I dont think it would be all that different.
Speaking of which, I need to get my cable and spring replaced someday too.
