The gold colored clips? They were fiddly but there is a,way to unclip them, check the b&m instructions, I seem to recall they had the trick. I can't remember what it was though...

Oh, heck no. The shifter cable goes into the shifter very easily. The retaining portion is spring loaded and simply twists and pulls back from the cables and the end lifts out. If I recall they lock into that position as well. Mark your cable position at the shifter. The cables connect to the shifter housing with a clip. Pretty straight forward.
