Texas Jim Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I would think that if it is made for your car...aftermarket would work ok if it was a name brand like STANT. I would compare dealer prices vs aftermarket, and if it is not a whole lot more...I would get the genuine GM cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
