I had the same issue. I guess their casting is off, in the end i just went ahead and trimmed it so it sat flat and flush. Mine is hidden under a console anyway. Just use some tin snips or grinding wheel to clearance it.

push down to remove cover and slide it off. Let me know if you still have trouble.

There should be a small metal circle that the cable passes through on the frame. You need to loosen the metal piece so you can get the cable into the loop. Once in the loop re-tighten and the pull is on the frame. That is how mine was.

Mine was a little loose, but it just needs to be tapped to snug up the connector tabs. Hope this makes sense and helps.

do you have any room to slide it up or down at all? do that and fish the cable thru. I wouldn't prying it off as it might break.

There are two slight indentations on the front edge of the cover about three inches in from each side. Press up on these with your thumbs and the cover should lift up. Hope this works.

I think the cables are intended for the "pro" quicker shifting traditional bar-end cabling. That means the cable does not run under the tape to the flats. It is intended to come straight of the shifter only after a couple of wraps of tape. You can look up pictures if you need help. This means if you run it under the tape on a big bar or big bike, you may come up short. I did on my 59cm with 44cm bars. Hey, its Dura Ace so you can't complain.

This shifter fits many applications, not just yours so the cable is basically universal for that freason. You really can't shorten the cable just install it and route it as needed, the excess of length will not affect how it works. Maybe you should see if the MFG offers a shorter cable for your vehicle if this creates a problem for you.

Check the power cable in the back. It does not fit quite as snugly as it should on this unit.

The cable might be loose inside the panels. Remove licence plate and cover. Need a special tool to remove latch. Hard to find. Made one myself. Its a ?shape with top pointing straight insted of down. Hope this helps

Opening in the box is too tight. I might suggest getting a short 3' extension that is usually used for power packs. I could not find the 'three pak' listing but try this C&E CNE46058 1-Foot Extension Power Cable, 5-Pack

You ned to install a tension adjuster on the rear shift cable, somewhere between the shifter and derailer. This can be an inline barrel type, or a cable stop type.

I had that problem at first, and then I realized that I had the orange connector piece in the wrong position. The larger hole slips over the end of the cross-bar, and the smaller portion fits into the upright posts. Hope this helps.

I don't know. What you can do is take off the shifter knob and check if the button is straight up. If it is then it will work. Usually they customize the inside of the knob so you can push in the button on the side or front.

Try turning it upside down. I thought both ends looked the same and had the same problem. Finally out of frustration I turned it upside down and it fit great.

I have this problem often and it's the gears directly in there. Both sides need the gears adjusted by finger to ensure that they are both closest to the top. This is in the instructions so it may be something you've tried, but that's what always works for me. The gears have to be up to grab the cards. If that doesn't work it might be an issue beyond the gears you can access and something else could've shifted in shipping.
