Vehicle-Specific Buick GL8 Upgrades

Running boards and the tailgate kit are listed per trim, so the product stated for your Avenir, 653T, 652T, 28T, 25S or E25S is the one to order rather than a generic GL8 listing where a trim-specific version exists. Every current GL8 tailgate listing is offered with an optional foot sensor alongside the standard version, letting you choose hands-free operation at the rear trunk. These are aftermarket accessories, not genuine Buick parts.

How to Choose Buick GL8 Accessories

1. Check the trim name and year range stated on each product listing.
2. Compare it with your GL8 to find Avenir, 653T, 652T, 28T, 25S or E25S.
3. For the tailgate kit, choose the 25S, ES, 2014-2016 or 2005-2010 listing based on your GL8's trim and year.
4. Decide whether you want the standard tailgate version or the version with the optional foot sensor.
5. Check the full product listing for fitment details before ordering.
