'06 mirror caps?

[CBR_Raven]

Are there 2 different style mirror caps for the '06? It seems that is one style for the base and adventure and another for the Lux or am I wrong.

I thought they were all the same new style mirror with the chrome painted plastic insert in the middle of the mirror. I looked at an adverture and Lux 06 while waiting on the H3 last Friday and they were all the same.

I just got the new '06 mirrors last week. My caps have been painted and are curing right now. Can't support the chrome lifestyle.

How do I remove chrome insert on 06 mirrors. I need to have it painted or powdercoated. Should I let a body shop try to remove, dealership, or should I remove. What type of covering will look and hold up the best?. Thanks

I have an appoinment on Tuesday to have my new mirrors installed. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

After the general trashing the 06 mirrors get here when they first appeared (I was one of the VERY FEW who likes 'em!), I find it emberassing how many of you are now rushing to get your old mirrors replaced with the new style http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

You have to pop out the mirror first. Carefully grab the mirror face(glass) and give it a uniform & firm tug. Both mirrors are connected by wires(for the defrost) so leave them attached and let them hang. Behind the mirror you'll find 4 torques screws. Remove them and the mirror splits in half. The offensive chrome insert can then be removed from the inside of the front half.

What's up bling bling!

[Alan06SUT]

I think all 06 come with the bling mirrors. I ordered mine: SUT adventure body colored grille, black everything, but much to my dismay, they had the chrome bling on the mirrors! I thought I had oreded a unbling hummer but NO!

This site shows the two different mirror caps when you use the Build A Hummer selection. It shows when you change from the Adventure to LUX series.

so - GM paying? TSB?

I am wondering because mine vibrate at 55+ speeds. Driver side more than pass.

Welcome to 2 years ago.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

12/2 I get my new mirrors.

while i am there, I am also having the dealer change the oil & lube everything (squeaky bushings), and take care of the driver seat memory issue with an update - sometimes it forgets mem-1 and mem-2.

That should be enough to have both replaced.
