Can someone direct me to a site, or post instructions on replacing the back brakes. my main concern is taking the emergency brake cable off and putting it back on. Any tips??

if it's just the pads (I see you have a SE, so it's disc brakes all around), then you dont need to worry about the parking brake cable
when you compress the piston to slide the caliper back down, be sure to use some needle-nose pliers to twist it clockwise while pushing in; dont just use a clamp like the fronts
for pads, you just need to take off the wheel, remove one bolt holding the inner caliper to the outer portion and the flip the inner caliper assembly up and you can then get to the brake pads
for rotors, you need to take off both the inner and outer caliper and then the rotor will just pull off with some force
in this pic, the silver part is the part I'm calling the "inner caliper" and the black is the outer
yours will be all one color (brake dust grey) unless you've painted them like this guy (killermove is his name)
where in GA are you? I'm in Duluth (Gwinnett County) if you know where that is

Not that I dont believe you but I have never heard of an SE without disk brakes...I thought that was one of the standard features of the SE from 89-94.
