Question new shifter cable need HHR 2006 manual

Hi I need to replace the shifter cable, I got new ones I removed the old one already but I was wondering if I need to put grease or wd40 inside the new shifter cable? is a manual trans F23.
Thanks

Seeing how that cable will last 15 years as is I don't think you are going to gain anything by trying to make it last 20.

well what I tried is to avoid issues with the salt and rust inside the cable from winter time.
