Cruise control switch/stalk, can't find one

Would you say this is the end/connection at the other end of my broken/cut wire?  Does it just pull out or is there a latching of some kind to look for?

There’s a tab that locks onto the connector for the stalk that needs to be pried up to remove the stalk from the connector.

The red connector you have circled is the connector.

Great!  Good to know I am messing with the right thing, and that just pulling isn't going to do it!  If the other end is just flopping around in the column, it would seem I can just pull it on out the bottom, since I can't see it from the top anyway there's not a how lot advantage to leaving it in there.

Yep, just pull it out.  The new one can be fished down from the top, it's easier with a stiffer wire.  If you end up with a very floppy wire version, then maybe fish a stiffer coper wire down first then pull the new wire down by taping it to the new cruise wire.
