Review: OEM quality at much better price - OEM quality at much better price. The tool worked really well too. Used in my 2009 Tahoe. Review: Great tool worked perfectly! Here's some easy instructions to use it also :) enjoy! - So this tool worked perfectly to remove the 12v power outlets in my 2008 Yukon. It was a little tricky at first, especially reading that so many people broke things getting off and had to pull really hard, but after 1 minute of doing that I thought there had to be a better way, and let me tell you there is!!! It was so easy, I pulled out both my outlets and replaced the rings in under a minute with this tool. So here is what you have to do, you'll see a little square about half way down your outlet on the bottom, angle the tool so that one half of the T goes in that little square, then lift the handle up on the tool so that the other half goes in the outlet and you'll feel it fit into a square on the top inside of the outlet. Once you have it locked in just pull a little bit, I think this is where everyone else was having problems, you can pull as hard as you want and it will rip it out but it will most likely break something. So instead of doing that just pull a little bit until you see the outlet come out just a tiny bit, that's all it needs. I then removed the tool the same way I put it in and was able to just slide the out let out and then unplug it. It's that easy! :D All the tool does is release the clips inside so you can slide it out, once you've slid it a little the clips aren't engaged anymore and the tool is now blocking you from completely removing the outlet. Once you remove the tool, the outlet just slides right out. Hope that helps!!!

I have a 2007 Saturn ion** A: You may need to modify the tool, ** OR IT WILL GET STUCK **. See this review for the Dorman 57450 (same tool): https://www.amazon.com/review/R2PS0RVXWCB55 **Q: does this have 3 prong for the plug in? mine on my 94 jetta does and this looks so similar unlike anything on here, but it says it won't fit which idk** A: It has only 2 prongs to plug in! **Q: will this work on a 2017 corvette?** A: I really don't know but you could try YouTube with your question. That is actually where I found the fix for my 2011 HHR. I found a good video on replacing mine. . Mine was pretty easy but on a better I don't have any idea! I hope it is a simple fix like mine. Good luck! **Q: Will this work on dodge neon 2000?** A: I'm guessing it'll work on most 12 volt accessory outlets, since they all look the same. Just a guess. ## Customer Reviews ### ā­ā­ā­ā­ā­ OEM quality at much better price *by A***S on December 23, 2025* OEM quality at much better price. The tool worked really well too.

Good luck everyone! ### ā­ā­ā­ā­ā­ Easy solution to difficult problem *by R***D on February 14, 2016* The tool and socket worked for my 2008 GMC Sierra 1500 and made the job of replacing the cover very easy and quick. One of the 12V power outlet covers on the dash was broken at a car wash recently. I researched how to replace the cover online and found a YouTube video, which gave instructions for partially disassembling the dash, and this listing on Amazon with Nick's review. Encouraged by Nick's review, I gave this tool a shot. My experience was a little different from Nick's. If the tool is fully engaged into both holes and the socket is pulled out of the dash hole a 1/4" or so (as Nick described), then I was unable to remove the tool from the socket and thus was unable to pull the socket completely out. As Nick accurately describes, pulling the socket out past this point, with the tool still in, will cause damage. Unlike Nick, I was unable to remove the tool at this point and had to do something different. Watching the YouTube video, you can see how there are two parts to this assembly, the socket and the cover. To remove the assembly, the socket must come out all the way first, then the cover can just be pushed out. What happens is the socket keeps two plastic clips on the cover extended so that they engage the dash hole and prevent the cover from being pulled out. With the socket removed, those two clips simply relax, thus allowing the cover to be pulled out. I used the prong on the tool to push in the clip in one hole, pulled the assembly out a bit, and held that with a screwdriver. Holding that, I used the prong to push in the clip in the opposite hole and tugged a little. Voila, I could pull the assembly out a quarter inch which then allowed just the socket to be pulled out all the way. There is just enough wire length to allow the socket to be pulled out so the plug can be disconnected. With the socket removed, and holding the wiring plug so it does not retract into the dash, the cover can be just pulled off. To reassemble, reverse the procedure. Start with installing the new cover. Then plug the wiring harness into the socket, align the splines on the socket into the cover, and press in fully to engage the clips.
