Nnbs lift gate appliques

[CHOO CHOO]

Does anyone know if the lift gate appliques are interchangeable from a tahoe to a denali?
I dont like the tahoe symbol on the rear and want to use the denali or yukon applique instead. Would it match up or is it a slightly different shape?

Here is what I want

From what I understand, they are interchangeable, but it is difficult to do. The shapes are different. I actually like the Tahoe's lines better.

NathanJax did it like 4 times, I believe, but I heard it's pretty difficult.

There is a thread around here.

Gotcha, I did read from that thread that they bust easy, just dont want the tahoe symbol there.
I figured the lines would be off but not sure how much. Hmmm. Might not even be worth it....thanks!

Yukon and Tahoe are slightly different. I think it's Fiatdale's thread where he showed the Yukon one is a little more curved. They are interchangeable. I swapped Jacobs burban one for a Yukon one when I was up there and yeah I've done mine like 3 or 4 (or 5) times

Hmm ill see if I can find one cheap. Been wanting to do this for a looong time, just never got around to it

If you find out a good place would you let me know. I'm gonna have to paint my tailgate and don't want to paint it with it in there and am pretty sure I'll break the old one trying to get it off.

The problem is taking them apart, (at least on mine) they used thread locker, and the thread locker locked the nuts on the part so well that it just broke the plastic and began to spin inside the part.

I broke mine completely off, and then glued the screws back into the unit with plastic epoxy like studs before I put it back together... All this to change the darn backup camera. I used a spot of silicone for the threads to keep them from backing out, and have not had a problem after 6 months.

Just an FYI

In case you're still looking, I bought this one off eBay. It's the cheapest price out there and it's brand new: http://www.ebay.com/itm/370943967629

Although the description says it comes with the emblem, it doesn't.

I'm planning on doing the same thing. Don't like the emblem and like the Yukon applique better.
