I'm a new owner of 05 Adv Red Metallic, I bought the vehicle on October 31st and for the most part love the vehicle. This will be my first post on the forum after trying to find my answers.

The dealer installed M2 OE design wheels. I have tried to research this wheel and last night just found their website. Does anybody know anything about these wheels? I was suppose to get the Alcova wheels but their was a "mistake" and the dealer said these wheels were better.

Does anybody have experience painting the dash components. I have found many pictures with this having been done and I like the way it looks. If anybody has instructions on taking apart the dash it would be appreciated. I found instructions on how to install a DVD player in the center dash console, what about the other pieces.

I bought my H2 at invoice and felt very good about it, the dealer installed chrome roof bars, chrome side steps, color matched grill for no charge. I paid $48,300+$500 doc fees plus $600 for the wheels. After reading some other posts this may not have been a good price, what do you guys think?

Thanks

Ok, so you got the MC2 wheeles in chrome. If they are the stock looking rims that are chromed, they are not even as close to good as the Alcoa's. The Alcoas are much more expensive too. I have had three sets of the chromed MC2 wheels on my 03. The mag chloride out here destroyed them.

i would go back and request the Alcoa rims. you can get the MC2 factory chromed rims for $180 each from my dealer in CO. I think the Alcoa's are around $300 to $400 each.
