Search About $35-$50 a side for the cables and you will need 2 (driver and passenger side) I don't think you can just replace "the rear". Aftermarket...not sure about. Rockauto.com is always cheap though and they have name brand stuff, Bendix, Dorman, Raybestos Etc. Heres a thread I read on replacement. Guy said it took him 3 hours due to rusted bolts etc http://forums.maxima.org/4th-generat...ake-cable.html

sounds about right. I did mine and it took at least that long cuz I had rusted heat shield bolts. It'll take even longer if your exhaust has never been dropped before cuz you'll likely have to cut/torch the bolts and what not

Have fun!
