06 mirrors for astralian converted H2
Greetings to all from Australia.
I am the proud owner of a 2005 H2 lux that i imported and converted to RHD, it has taken 12 long months to convert including dealing with the Govt red tape to get it registered. Now i am looking to get some 06 mirrors to update the look. Can anyone help me out here or give me some leads. I have a friend in New York that could post them to me here in Australia if that is easier.
Cheers from down under
Brenton
P.S. it would also help if i could spell the country i am from!

Re: 06 mirrors for astralian converted H2
What will be heally hard to get used to is the turn signals are on the wrong side. I drove RHD vehciles when I was in Japan and the turn signals are on the door side of the stering wheel. I looks to me like his are still on the left side. Good luck with that!

I think everyone here gets them from the dealer. Maybe a GM parts place over there can get some from here. Cool truck. Now lets get some pics of it off road down there!

Re: 06 mirrors for astralian converted H2
Thanks for the kind words guys, the E brake pedal sits up high when driving so no chance of accidentally stepping on it. the indicators (turn signals) are still on left (we have many european cars here so i often turn windscreen wipers on when cornering).
Back to my original request i am chasing any leads on 2006 mirrors, i realise that new would be expensive (especially with the exchange rate) but at least that would be a starting point for me if any one could gve me prices. i recently missed a pair on ebay that went for $400 US that i would have gladly paid for had i seen the auction in time.
btw this is the first car i have ever owned where i was driving down the street and a mum and daughter flashed their boobs at me, kind of concerning (i am not a good looking man either)...also parking is proving harder in our smaller spaces.

Re: 06 mirrors for astralian converted H2
Brenton,
Nice work there!
Did you do it yourself or is there an outfit in Oz who do it?
I once owned a fantastic Right hand Drive H1 that was converted by the Hummer place that used to be out in Perth - are they still in existence?...and can you still buy any of their converted H1's in the old dealership network they set up in Oz?
I recall that for a while GM Australia were avertising right-hand-drive H2's - did they ever actually make any?
I'm just wodering about all of this because theere's clearly a market for RHD H2's (There was a place her in the UK - in Liverpool - offering what looked to be a VERY nice conversion - but they seem to have dropped off the the map?)
It's good to see someone with so much passion for a product that theyve gone through what you went through (I can empathise - everyone thought i was completely mad when I brought the first H1 into the UK in 1996!)

Brenton, all joking aside, get a factory Hummer double tier brush guard. From the driver seat you can easily judge where the corners of the hood/bumpers are making parking a breeze.
I actually like the look of a naked H2 but that double tier brush guard sure makes things easier.
