FITMENT NOTE: Confirm that your Camaro has the corresponding factory tow-eye attachment point and verify the part number against your VIN. The mounting arrangement and towing instructions may vary by model and equipment.
- One used OEM GM removable tow eye / tow hook, part number 22873449.
Tow hook cover, storage insert, mounting socket, towing straps, and additional accessories are not included unless separately specified.
The GM 22873449 tow eye is a removable steel attachment designed for compatible factory tow-eye mounting locations. It features a threaded shank and a closed towing eye for controlled vehicle loading under the procedures specified by General Motors.
The original tow eye is typically stored in the vehicle's rear compartment when not in use, where equipped. This used OEM replacement can help restore the vehicle's original roadside-assistance equipment when the factory tow eye has been lost or damaged.
Inspect the threads, ring, and shank for deformation, severe corrosion, or damage. A visibly bent, cracked, or otherwise compromised towing eye should not be used.
- Consult the correct Chevrolet Camaro owner's manual for your model year and trim.
- Locate the approved factory tow-eye mounting socket and remove the applicable access cover if equipped.
- Inspect the tow eye and socket for thread damage, debris, or corrosion.
- Thread the tow eye into the socket in the direction specified by the owner's manual until fully seated.
- Use the tow eye only within the vehicle manufacturer's permitted loading or limited-movement procedures.
- Do not use the tow eye for off-road recovery, lifting the vehicle, or pulling it from mud, snow, sand, or a ditch.
- Remove and store the tow eye after use according to the applicable owner's manual.
