Is it safe to put back the cable into the clip after it was loose?
Yes - it just may be coming loose again in the near future. Look at any bending or if the retainer clip is misshapen that can be straightened out.
The gear shifter has a retaining clip, just below the shifter knob. Hold the retaining clip in, on both sides of the shifter rod, and the shifter knob will come off.
The 1987 Pontiac Trans Am shifter knob is held in place with a retaining clip below the shifter knob. Push the retaining clip together and the shifter knob will raise off.

On the cavalier there is a clip on the front of the shifter that has to be removed with a pick or a flat head screwdriver. After removing that clip, which looks like a staple when removed, you can just pull the shifter off. It is the same whether it is a manual or an automatic. This is the correct answer.
I have this same problem. A broken shifter box. I will repost a fix as soon asap.
It is screwed on. Turn it counterclockwise. If it is an automatic there is a little horseshoe clip in the front of the shifter just pop it out and the shifter knob will pop off.
If you follow the shifter down to the bottom of your Durango, you will see that the "C" clip that holds that shifter to a transition bar that goes back to the gear case has fallen off. The bar should still be dangling there and you can replace the clip. (hopefully) Gene
