    My 5-speed shifter is getting kind of squeaky and it seems like it
    needs lubrication in the area
    under the shift lever boot. How do I access this area ? Do I need to
    pull the console ? Is it accessible from beneath the car ? Does the
    shifter boot some how come off so that it can be lifted up ?

    The cable ends require to be greased where they attach to the shift lever
    mechanism. Evidently the grease eventually wears off.

    Looks like this is done from the inside of the car, after removal of the
    trim panels.

    Removal of the trim is very tricky. I strongly recommend you purchase a
    shop manual, which outlines the procedure in great detail.
    Try eBay or www.helminc.com
