Hmm, Amazon prime has a couple aftermarket GM-style "1 size fits all" security shades with fitment across several Caddy's, both Yukon's, Suburban and Tahoe for $119-135 (OEM is $195 shipped) .. should I risk it ?
Your already paying more than half for the aftermarket one, so at that point just order the proper OE one from GM and know it will be the correct fitment and not have to hope you can make the amazon one fit/ or ship it back for refund.

Free return shipping? What's to lose?

I keep thinking that if I buy/install the aftermarket shade, and later I hear a some squeaking or rubbing noises.. that I will blame the Amazon shade and then go order the OEM shade anyway.

My salesman just texted saying the transport company didn't deliver my Suburban to them over the weekend, and since the out of state dealership is driving it down to me here in Georgia, it may be another 2 weeks before I get it :eek:

I read that :eek:

Reminds me back 22 years ago when I had a ML430 Benz with a security shade that would flap or buffet when I was driving with the windows down or on uneven road surfaces, but quiet as a church mouse when it was coiled up.

I'm older now, retired and living in the country where I don't often buy supplies that require hiding from prying eyes.. so I'm thinking that my incoming Suburban's shade will prolly stayed coiled up most the time :thumbsup:

Honestly, till the end of the year, the GM accessories site for your brand (Chevy.com and hit accessories) has 10-25% off depending on your purchase amount. I bought my floor liners and cargo shade last year this time and got the shade for basically free…and if you have it shipped to the dealer the shipping is free and you just pick it up…

Today after some thought and consideration I ordered the Amazon Prime shade for 1/3 less than OEM, my CC and shipping info is already on file with Amazon so was literally 3 mouse clicks and done.

I polly have 30-days if I need to return it (free) and I might not use the shade often anyway.

I appreciate y’all’s insights and suggestion, and I’ll post a photo along with my thoughts once both the shade and Suburban arrive !!
