Review on 🔌 DB Electrical 410-12257 Starter - Fits Buick Rainier 2004-2007, Cadillac Escalade 2003-2005, Chevrolet Avalanche 2007-2008, Avalanche 1500 2003-2006 - Replaces OEM Part Numbers: 8000016, 8000045, 6494N by Aaron Jimison

Starter fits well. I used old starter screws and nothing was needed. No heat shield is included. The starter was easy to install once you removed the dipstick and wheel arch plastic. Before proceeding with the installation, check out YouTube. This saves you hours of struggle with the starter. I am convinced that you cannot remove it without first removing the dipstick. Update: The starter died after 1 year.
