Okay, I had some time off, so I headed to the Cadillac dealership parts department. I got a chance to talk to the sales rep regarding the question: well a 2009 Platinum fit onto a 2005. Basically, he said he need both vin #s and the part numbers are the same then it's a match, but if not your...
Sorry for my delay. The shop initial purchased the lower V/mesh grill (the wrong one). They sent the lower v/mesh grill back and ORDERED the 2009 Platinum lower grill that matches the Platinum upper (non mesh grill). The platinum upper & lower grills is what I currently have on my 2007 XLR...
