Yes Aaron I think the rubber plug theory is correct. I tried to pry that baby out but it felt like it was metal to me and quite possibly a spot weld or two holding it in. Maybe get some locking plyer thing onto it and try and twist it out. I tried with the screw driver etc to pry it off but it wouldn't budge. Worst case scenario just cut the end of the tube off. Or better still price a new cable and just buy one.
