Ordering a new black Cargo Security Shade for my incoming '23 Suburban High Country and wanted to be sure that it's a simple drop-it item, that the 4 attachment points are already pre-formed into the vehicle's plastic interior trim.

I've browsed hundreds of Yukon, Tahoe and Suburban photos but their cargo-area interior shots seem to focus on the under-mat storage and the power outlet.

Thank you !

unless they changed something from the last 30 years then yes it's plug-n-play
the only difference would be maybe if you ordered one for a tahoe instead of a suburban as the lengths are not the same on the vehicles I am not sure if one size fits all in that regards or not.

Great news ! I'll place my order today. BTW, the Shop Chevy Parts site shows the Suburban black shade part # to be the same as Tahoe. They're what, about 20 inches difference ?

I was told that at least for the 2015-2020 body style that it simply wasn't a difference in length of vinyl between short and long wheelbase models but also in length of the mounting bar. Although the long wheel base body is no wider, it mounts in a different location in the cabin due to having more second row leg room and thus seats are pushed back a few inches.

Yeah, it's a 30 second drop in item. I've had mine in and out several times for various reasons. Haven't checked, but LWB vs. SWB may be one part number since mine i guess would work fine in a Yukon. It just wouldn't need to be extended as far, leaving some material in the rolled up portion.

That is what I'd think but I was told the length of the rigid rod is different.

It is on the earlier generations because of the HVAC housing butting right up to the back of the 2nd row seats.

Makes sense. That fan compartment is right behind the second row seat in my short wheel base variety.

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 ?
