I wouldn't recommend doing that... I had to disconnect that cable after chisling away at the tumbler in the ignition. My saturn had something similar in it. the cable is designed to tie in with the shifter and brake pedal, if the brake pedal isn't depressed you shouldn't be able to get it out of gear. I would recommend checking the fusebox, or even the bulbs to make sure you got the right ones in. If not it may be a short in the electrical system.
