I'm looking for the original console shift cable for a 85 cutlass salon...the aftermarket cable are too long for the original

shifter in my car....I have find it no where literally I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction

 

RockAuto lists two different length cables for a 3.8/5.0/5.7L engines - 31" and 26" Looks like you need the 26" one for a console car.
