I have a quick question. I just had the dealer install the H3 off road lights for the roof and was wondering, will I still be able to install a Gobi Roof Rack?
I am looking at getting the stealth model, but am worried that it wont fit with the off road lights? Can anyone help?

It will work with the rack no problem. I'm not sure about the wind deflector though. With my stealth rack it's about 4 inches from the front edge of the wind deflector to the top edge of the windshield glass if that helps.

get rid of the factory up tops man. I have them too and I wish I would have gotten the markers and got some nice bright ones on a gobi. Don't get me wrong they do add a lot of lumens at night, but not nearly as much as good aftermarket ones.

well i was going to add the remote controlled spots i had seen from some previous threads. they are pretty cool and were on sale for 175. ea
thought i would mount them on my front guard since its big enough.

WHen you order the tack you MUST SPECIFY that you have the HUMMER lights up there and if you have a sunroof or not as well. Than your good to go.

No problem with the install but the wind deflector does block my XM satellite signal sometimes when going south. The wind noise is pretty bad without the deflector so I live with it as I didn't feel like relocating the antenna.

Thanks Tim for the definitive answer....:beerchug:

Also, if you guys/ gals do have the XM interuption, it's an easy fix. All you need is a Sirius antena to be mounted either on top of the rack or all the way in the back. It's about the diameter of a golfball but is flat. It's very easy to integrate. I don;t have a writeup on this or anything, but you can always PM me your info and I can go through it with you. GOBI has the kits or can tell you exactly what you need and I how to do it as well.
