F Panel – GM (85607876)

This is a f panel from GM, factory part number 85607876. It is catalogued under Covers & Caps > Panels & Plates.

• Colour-matched and textured covers are rarely interchangeable with a plain black service part, even where the moulding is identical.
• Covers that seal a fluid opening normally carry a single-use gasket or O-ring, and reusing the old one is the usual reason a leak comes back.
• On panel and plate parts, check whether the original is held by clips, screws or both. The fasteners are often sold separately and are often what actually broke.

The number stamped on the old part is the only reliable identifier, since two parts can look identical and differ by a millimetre or by rotation direction. Torque figures belong to the fastener and the joint rather than to the part, so the factory procedure is the reference rather than a general rule.

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.
