Yes. but Id advise you go to ford and get one for an '04. Aftermarket ones are known to break easily.

I'm looking at pics and can see where it connects to the firewall is different. It's not looking good :-/ it's also about 4 inches shorter.

I don't know, but I'd go to Latemodel Resto and just look at their cables, see if there is a difference between the years. They usually have a good description on what fits what.

Well I ended up finding what must have been the only clutch cable on the east coast of Virginia for a 94-95 mustang. So it's all good. But for future reference for anyone else, the fox cable will not work in a 94-95.

Do yourself a favor and get a nice adjustable clutch cable. I got the SR performance kit from American Muscle (with the cable, quadrant, and firewall adjuster), and it improved my shifting 10 fold. Do what you have to do for now, but FYI.

I've always heard and read not to bother with adjustable cables but I am going to get a steeda quadrant and sr firewall adjuster.

Let me know what you think, I haven't purchased anything else yet, I know that company makes some real nice products. I didn't know they made them.
