20983936 Power Outlet Cover by General Motors

No idea if these are an OEM product or aftermarket but they look exactly like the ones I had in my SUV. I only needed one but decided to change out both front ones because these looked nice and new. Do yourself a favor though, buy the removal tool to change these. I will probably never use it again, but made the changing out job a piece of cake. Took less than a minute to remove the old and insert the new.

I was hesitant to replace the outlet covers after seeing several videos that were removing the entire dash panels to get to the outlet covers. I didn't want to risk breaking any of the dash clips just to replace them. I kept searching for this tool that many talked about and finally found it. I also ordered the Dorman 56457 Cigarette Lighter Socket and Removal Tool. With this tool, it made it super easy to replace. The tool was mostly used to push the two clips in. Once you push those clips in and remove the tool, I just used some needle nose pliers to pull the outlet out and I was then able to pull cover out and replace. The first cover took some time to replace since I couldn't figure out how to remove socket tool. Once I figured out how to remove the tool, replacing the second cover was a breeze. Back to the item itself. Covers fit great an no more uncovered outlets.

For my '11 Chevy Tahoe - First, BUY THE DORMAN lighter socket removal tool. DO NOT go thru the hassle of removing your dash as seen in YouTube videos. With the Dorman tool, you don't need to do that. As others have stated, insert the tool into the tabs in the socket, use a pocket knife or small flat blade screwdriver to separate the broken cover from the socket , but not too much. (Width wise- maybe about the size of a 3x5 index card folded in half). NEXT, remove the tool from inside the socket. You may need to wiggle it up/down and back/forth, but be patient and it'll come out. Once the tool is out, pull everything forward and remove the cover from the socket by pressing the tab. Last note - when putting everything back together, insert the new cover into the whole FIRST. Then, pull the wire thru the cover, plug it into the socket then push the socket back into the hole til it snaps in place. Don't take out your whole dash. The Dorman tool is cheap and made this job easier than it woulda been.

So, if you are looking at this item you obviously want to keep your GM vehicle looking new. This is an OEM part that perfectly replaces that broken accessory outlet cover that broke off. There are U-Tube videos that show you exactly how to make the fix. I replaced both of mine in a 2011 Yukon in less than 15 minutes using a small flat bladed screwdriver. Very pleased! Oh yeah, and the part arrived superfast.

Only works for 12V cover, does not work for the usb port. Simply snap 12v receptacle through and snap entire assembly into the dash. Looks good. Quality is decent. It is just hard plastic.

2008 HHR, perfect replacement, actually it fit tighter than the original. Easy install. Note: this item does have a plastic mirror like ring around the edge that shows after installation which the factory one did not. However, this actually matches the ring around all the other controls in the center console. My original outlet ring had broken so I did not have to remove it which seems to be the hard part of this job. I've seen a lighter removal tool available on her and I think that would be a big time saver although I believe you could get it out using two very small/thin flat head screwdrivers to press in the pressure tabs.

Exactly the same as my original. Didn't buy the tool to remove the old one, so it was a bit of a job to remove the panel from the dash and replace the broken cover ... but looks GREAT in the end.

This replacement outlet cover was better than stock because the hinge fully rotates until it's against back, whereas the stock only rotates 90 degrees causing it to be stressed and broken off over time. Easy to replace with the tool.

Near perfect replacement. Fits loose on barrel of plug until assembly is installed in the dashboard trim. Product is excellent fit upon final assembly.

as advertised

It weren't bad.
