If it's a pre-2013 MRX, it's REALLY easy. I made a bad video of myself doing one a while ago.

(not shown in video is loosening cable clamp/cutting cable)
1. Make sure the right shifter is in the 7 (and the left shifter on the 1).
2. Peel up the rubber under the number.
3. push the cable a bit to free up the head, then pull cable.

Install is reverse of removal. Sometimes cable won't thread through without removing access hatch.
