gm molded trailer hitch closeout

[Chevyforever]

Has anyone seen the GM hitch closeout and what is your initial impression. Does it stick out or does it look like it belongs. Would like some comments before I purchase.

This isn't up close and personal....but go to www.gmaccessorydealer.com, click chevrolet, tahoe, trailering, and scroll down. You can see some pics there. hope that helps some.
I have not seen any installed yet.

I've got one. Nice paint match and fit. Vehicle looks unfinished without it.

Thanks for the responses, sounds good and looks great. This should be part of the truck when ordered. If anyone has any other photos please post especially Gold Mist. thanks

I recently purchased and installed one as well. Installation was easy, only requiring a drill. Good thing is that if you ever remove it, the drilled holes are not noticable at all.

Anyways, I echo the remarks that the ride doesn't look "finished" without it, as it creates a much smoother look indeed. Now all I notice when I see 99% of the Tahoes/Suburbans out there is the big gaping holes in their bumpers.

I definately recommend this cosmetic upgrade!

I bought one for my hoe but haven't installed it yet, my question is how fast does it come off when you want to use the hitch???

 

[VadersOwnZ71]

Is 30 seconds fast enough for ya?

I didn't bother to drill the holes for the bracket. Instead I bought some exterior grade double sided foam tape and attached the bracket. The plastic mounting ears on the cover will break before the bracket gives way.

That is an excellent solution for those who might be weary of the drill...

Good post!

my opinion is that the oem one is ugly here is the one i like looks alot smoother plus it plugs directly into the receiver and they are 110 painted

that will work great unless your going to actually tow something.....

Street Scene also makes one shown here:

I think this is the one I'm going to go with, it also just snaps in via the hitch.
