Do you guys know where I can purchase a tow hitch cover similar to this one:

But for a 2007 White Diamond escalade? Is there a website you can recommend? I’ve tried eBay but no luck there.
Also If anyone has the part number handy I would really appreciate it.
Cheers,
I don't think they are that expensive from a dealer. When ordered, they come unpainted - that is what really drives up the cost. I have had mine replaced under warrantee a few times. Make sure whatever you buy off ebay or your dealer is the "updated" design with additional side clips. Especially if you take it on and off a lot. Since I got the "new" design, no problems at all. The "old" design, after removing and replacing many times, the clips would weaken or break and then the cover would sag or hang down, being secured only by the bottom two clips. You can glue it up with some clear silicone (RTV), but once you take it off, you need to re-glue everytime! The new design solves the problem.

I have an extra one but its black. Let me know if you are interested.
I came out to my truck this past summer to find the cover gone - some lowlife had taken it.. A call to the dealer revealed $200 to replace it and $78 to have it painted.. Found a seller on Craigslist who had one for $100.. He painted it white diamond for $20.. Delivered with no flaws for $120.. I went to the dealer and bought the 2 fastners..

That's why I'm looking for an new one :annoyed:...
I know the warranty will cover it but when I went to a dealer they said since the part has not yet fallen off the truck they wouldn't replace it :suspect:
I'm gonna try a different dealer...
Again , there is a new design. It has two additional anchor points. It requires two hidden drilled holes on your rear bumper. Make it fall off and get the re-design if there is not another dealer around. Boy I appreciate my dealer more after reading some of the garbage others have to go through.
