Tesla Model Y Tow Hitch Cover Removal Tool, Made in USA from Recycled Plastic

$10.00 $15.00 On sale • Save 33%

Note: 2026 Model Y Juniper refresh has a revised cover design that does not need tools to open.

It's not just you! The hitch cover on the Model Y has multiple clips on all sides that make it surprisingly difficult to remove and easy to damage. We used universal pry tools at first, but found that they were damaging the cover, so we made our own custom solution with these tools.

Useful but could use some refinement

I was excited to receive these hits cover removed tools. I immediately went out back and started using them on the cover, only to discover that it was quite difficult for them to insert into the fine crack between the cover and the bumper. I believe with some fine sanding on the tops create a finer wedge would make these tools a bit more useful. I was however after considerable manipulation able to use the tools to remove the cover and quite happy to discover that a hitch was actually installed that I was unaware of until the removal of the cover.

Works as advertised

It works exactly as advertised, I used it and removed the hitch cover easily. If you have tire levers for changing bike tires you might be able to use them to accomplish the same thing, worth a try.

LivingTesla is the most responsive company I’ve purchased from. I bought this tool and the end was a bit thick making it difficult to insert. I wrote a note about it, got an immediate reply, and was sent a modified tool that works perfectly! Thank you so much for listening and being so responsive. I’m now a customer for as long as I own Tesla’s.

So glad we picked this up. We tried to use plastic spudger tools from computer repair kit and other tools from the garage but could not get the tow hitch cover plate off. This tool works perfectly.
