F Element – GM (98071421)

The f element here is the GM part, numbered 98071421. It is catalogued under Accessories & Mounts > Inserts & Elements.

• Check the option code as well as the model year, since accessory trim often changes within a single production year.
• Protectors and guards are cosmetic in function but structural in fit, and a misaligned one will rub through the panel it is meant to protect.
• Inserts that locate in a moulded recess rely on the original clip geometry, and a worn recess will let even a new insert move.

The photographs on a listing show the actual stock item, so compare the mounting points and the connector or fitting rather than the overall shape. Superseded numbers are common, and where a factory number has been replaced the current part is usually dimensionally identical to the original.

Check the number on the part you are removing before ordering. If it is worn off, send the VIN and a photo and we will match it. Handed to the carrier within one to two business days from our US warehouse, free over $59.
