They look small to me. So what does it look like if you don't get the chrome package?

OH LOOK AT ME IM A H2 MIRROR.....LOVE THE H2 HATE THE MIRROR.....I WONDER HOW MUCH SALES HUMMER WIL LOOSE DUE TO THE MIRROR....A GREAT MACHINE PLEASE NO BLING.

Looks like a kiddies golf club. I hope the 05 mirrors can be retrofitted.

Might be cool if the outside rim piece were transparent and included a turn signal light. As is, I'm not too sure...

That's just ugly. Plain and simple.

The changes for 06 are the mirror, the word Hummer is cast into the plastic just above where the lic plate would go if you did not have a rear mounted spare tire carrier, they deleted the rf door lock cylinder, and it has a longer warranty.

rear tire carrier is no longer a standard option for suv?

Every 06 H2 we've gotten in has had a rear mounted spare, but I've been told it's an option. As far as deleting the rf door lock cylinder, GM has been doing that on other models for years, because nobody uses the keys to unlock a car anymore, people always use the remote. And when you have a bean counter that says delete a 5.00 part on 500,000 vehicles and save 2.5 million, the big wigs say go for it.

Make perfect sense to me.

Saw a 06 today with that mirror. Fugly. Almost makes me want to sell mine just to not be associated with that styling cue errr mistake.

Surely they must have saved some money on the new mirrors...

The more I see them, the more I think that they actually got paid to use them.

as usual, GM is always about 10-15 years late to cash in on the german design. first they use 89 Jetta Hella projectors for the headlights, then 92 Audi RS2 sidemarkers for the roof lamps, and now they've gone and tried to incorpororate Mercedes Benz mirror turn signals into their chrome mirros. I guess they know their target market well, and exactly what styling cues will catch their attention.

Damn I'm so looking forward to this road trip

After seeing the mirrors in person I have to admit I've changed my opinion of them- Not bad. Nice, actually. Much more substantial stalk- less likely to break. Plus the inner mechanism is now inside the upper end of the mirror stalk tube and protected from pooling moisture(which caused rust and ultimately failure).
Now if GM will offer black caps instead of the ghey chrome bling caps I'll consider ordering a new PEWTER '06... unless the H2 Alpha(which I get to see in Vegas on my way home from Moab) has something special that makes my wee-wee tingle.

Looks like someone saw the mirror caps and barfed on the door!

So when are you scheduled to see the H2 Alpha? I'm sure you'll be posting pics if permitted...

leaf springs and a chrome mirror that even the bay area would blush over

i cant tell, is that the militarized version or the street version, they're indistiguishable to the casual observer right?!?!


LMFAO

ah, H2 Alpha! MMMMMMM...I would love to smell the Duramax in it! I wonder if it will come true..Last i knew the "new H2 body style" will not be out before the end of 07 for the 08's. Note this is all hear say from no one important. Did you all hear sooner?

Alec, are you off your meds?

I guess it doesn't matter. Go ahead and stay off them since that is the only way that corn_plug will be able to keep up with you.

YEAH RIGHT... i'm so obsessed with enragement, i'm over on JU right now looking for me

according to my email, alec is singing my praises in JU's o/t right now

anyone have a working login for that place, i gotta see this

...... thanks for posting but I have to agree with the poop on the post message. That mirror looks cheap and poorly executed. There must be 20 year old intern back in the ID lab with nothing to do. Really, how many more H2 logos do you need on this thing?

Love my 03' H2 and will be keeping it a long time if this keeps up.

Gotta agree with ya there...The only chrome my black 03' has is the grill, and I'm considering a black painted one to get rid of that chrome (although it's easy to clean the bugs off the chrome. ) When I heard about the new mirrors, I though I'd get them to replace my original ones since they're starting to rattle a little, but when I saw them...ugh, what were they thinking? Maybe they wouldn't look too bad if you painted that big chrome thing on them or if someone comes out with a plain insert to replace that chrome thing. Every year, a little more chrome...in a few more years these things are gonna be ghetto right from the factory, 28" spinners and all...
