Where the Cadillac CT5 tailgate is listed

Location matters: yards in Florida ask a median $500, while New York yards ask $800, 60% more for the same part. Shipping usually costs less than that gap for smaller parts, so it can pay to buy out of state.

Market analysis
How much does a used Cadillac CT5 tailgate cost?
Asking prices for a used Cadillac CT5 tailgate are unusually spread out: the top listing asks about 6 times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, w/o spoiler, lists at a $550 median, while spoiler commands $822, a 49% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2020 units carry the lowest median at $650, while 2023 tops the table at $703. Parts from 2020–2026 are interchangeable, so if the 2020 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 7 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Cadillac CT5 sits 54% above the Ford Mustang ($431), 10% below the Mercedes C Class ($739), and 66% above the Chevy Camaro ($400) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used tailgate: what to check
- Inspect bottom lip seam for hidden rust: Examine inner bottom hem flanges and drain slots for hidden bubbling rust beneath seam-sealer rubber.
- Verify power liftgate motor and latch inclusion: Check whether automatic power trunk latches, cinch motors, and liftgate struts are included with the shell.
- Check camera mount and handle bezel fitment: Verify license plate light bezels, backup camera mounts, and keyless entry release buttons match your trim.
- Confirm heated glass defroster grid continuity: Examine rear window defroster line traces for scratches, broken grid lines, or snapped wire terminal tabs.
- Adjust hinge shims and striker for proper alignment: Align tailgate hinges and latch strikers carefully to maintain uniform body gaps and weatherstrip seals.
