Default Roof lights on hold?

Went down to the dealership to have them finish the up grades on my hummer and I was told that all roof light mounting kits are currently on hold due to rattling at high speeds.

I am moving to the mountains in 7 days and a wake up, and I do mean into the mountains. I really wanted them because they will be useful, and they add my style to the hummer. Im not a big bling-bling fan, rather a off roader type.

Also I am concerned when I do move, that the local Hummer dealership will honor the agreement of the package that I paid for.

What is the best approach to handle this problem?

I don't have all of your answers, but I know that our dealer received the new marker lights in a couple of months ago. We had wanted them, but were told to wait because of the rattle at higher speeds. Now they are in. You have probably already thought of this, but ... is there another Hummer dealer near you who might already have them in stock?

They are on an all stop. No ordering or selling. They have a fix for rattle at high speed but it is inefective. Have you thought or looked into getting the off road lights that mount in the lower grille? http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=17894

Marker light fixes have been nothing but bandaids. What I want is the redesigned version that actually works without problems or repeated attempts by the dealer to fix.

GM came up with a silicone adhesive fix that has worked great for me!

I have taken mine in three times to get the wind noise fixed and my marker lights were installed after the new install procedure came out. The first two times they were quiet for about a week or so. The third time apparently was the charmer. It has been almost 3 months now and no issues. Hopefully it will continue that way. Good luck with yours.

if it is a factory defect that will be covered by warranty the will. unless they are just so busy they will turn down work. we have spoken with HUMMER/GM and they agree that it does not matter who does the work, GM is paying

my above comment was assuming that you meant honor, if you really meant honer, then i apologize for my reply but if you did mean honer, could you rephrase using a different word so i can understand what you are saying. i apologize in advance for my ignorance
