Fits perfectly. for trunk release

Perfect fit. I had to install a few connectors to connect the switch wires to the car wires, but overall the swap was pretty easy. Only time will tell how long this transition will last.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Fits like factory.

This switch fits perfectly, no gaps. It comes with heat shrink connectors already crimped on the side of the switch. Of course it doesn't come with a straight clip connector as the wiring goes to the license plate lights. The switch requires a lot more force to press the button compared to the factory switch which 8 likes.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • write later

Failed after a year and a half.

This part worked great at first but this year it broke after a year and a half. You can hear water in the switch when you press it. There was a lot of corrosion visible on the back of the switch where the wires were attached. Obviously this is a problem as I had to replace it in the first place. If you try to check the wires, make sure the wires pulled out of the switch have a good connection. Unfortunately, this seems to be the only brand where Revain is the cheapest place to sell switches.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Not the best

Fits and works great

This is the perfect solution if you find your key fob works but the trunk button next to the license plate doesn't work (if neither works, check your fuses first). I bought it for my 2013 Chevy Cruze LT. After the replacement is complete (which you can do in about 20-40 minutes with the right tools. I can offer the following reviews: PROS: - The packaging was in good condition and the part is new - Enough cable to connect the plugs replace (if you don't have a plug to plug into the other end…
