2009 Pontiac G3 liftgate / hatch

The middle asking price for a used one is $543.61, across 2 live eBay listings for the 2008–2010 generation. That’s what sellers are asking, not what buyers paid. Sold prices aren’t published anywhere you can count on, and asking prices usually run about a quarter higher than what things sell for — so we say which one this is.

How it comes off

Hood, hatch and tailgate struts hold the panel up under load. Support the panel before you take a strut off, and bring a helper for anything you cannot hold with one arm.

  1. Unplug the wiring and the washer hose where they enter the body.
  2. With a helper holding it up, take the struts off.
  3. Remove the hinge bolts, usually reached from inside behind the headliner edge.

The usual order on most cars. A 2009 Pontiac G3 may hide a screw or a clip somewhere else: if a piece will not move, look for what is still holding it before you pry harder.

What to bring for it

Typical sizes, not a promise for every car. Everything to bring to a pull-your-own yard.

Is it worth pulling?

That depends on what the yard charges for it and how long it takes to get off the car, and on where it sits against the other 57 parts on a 2009 Pontiac G3 that have a market. The full sheet for this vehicle ranks all of them by what you save and by what you clear.
