Accesories for 09 Tahoe Hybrid?
Hi Everyone,
I just picked up a White 2009 Tahoe Hybrid, and am loving it so far.
My questions are....
1) What is the part number for the rear trailer hitch closeout (White)?
2) What is the part number for a chrome exhaust tip?
I searched around, but all the information I found was for non-hybrid tahoes.
Thanks,
Pete

Hi Pete,
here's the somewhat bad news ...
1. There's NO trailer hitch closeout available for the Hybrid bumpers, neither factory or aftermarket. If you look closely at the bumper there's not even a place to attach one. Trust me I looked relentlessly for six months. Even if someone claims that they have one that fits they are either lying or mistaken. There's only one solution, and it is an expensive one: https://www.greenhybrid.com/discuss/...tml#post238023
2. There's also no oem tip replacement for Hybrids. Even the Escalade Hybrid comes with that ugly pipe. I purchased the aftermarket tip/resonator delete package for the Hybrid from this ebay seller: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GM-SU...item4ceb981da4
Hope that helps.
Cheers!

Thanks for the great reply HyHoe.
I guess i can live without the rear close out.
But I am really interested in the tip/resonator delete you have.
Is it very loud? Do you have any video clips of it in action?
Also if I decide to get the chrome tip only, what should the tip diameter be?
Thanks!

I'm not sure what the tip diameter is ... perhaps you could contact the ebay seller and ask him, and if he's interested in selling the tip only.

Thanks again for the quick reply HyHoe,
I like the sound of your tahoe, but my wife says she will not drive it if it gets any louder!
So i guess i will have to find a chrome tip. You mentioned 2 3/4 in. Should that be the inlet diameter I should look for in the tips?
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks again.

Re: Accesories for 09 Tahoe Hybrid?
I honestly don't know enough about exhaust to advise you ...
My suggestion is to purchase the ebay tip I pointed to which can be installed with or without the resonator deleted.
Meaning that it can be attached both to the pipe before the resonator if you want to delete it, or to the pipe after the resonator if you wish to keep it.

I think I will end up going for the same exhaust set-up you have, the tips are amazing looking!
Also HyHoe, I had one request. Can you help me find the part number for the 09 Tahoe Hybrid OEM Front bowtie emblem?
Mine got damaged by a small rock.
I tried looking it up, but couldn't find it.
Thank You soo much for all your help. and I can say without a doubt that you have the sharpest looking tahoe i've ever seen!
