GM stopped putting them on all production cars during calender year 2010
Not really...it was more of GM attempting to put more focus back on the individual brands rather than the company as a whole.

Both meaning chicklets and backup sensors. If your car was built in April, you don't have the sensors.

I would say yes, but at that time my father was the market area manager for the west half of the US including Hawaii and was there when they made that decision. That may of been the official statement but GM felt pushed to stop putting them on vehicles because of negative feedback from end users.

Does anyone make vinyl overlays for the chicklets? I want to keep mine on, but just done want them to stand out so much. I have vinyl on the Camaro lettering and love the look, and I've already checked with the company I got those letters from with no luck....

Good gawd, how can people spend two years and 28 pages talking about this?

FWIW, this was the first thing that came to mind, when I saw the thread title. The old 1970s seat belt buckles!
