They are better than nothing, but I wouldn't buy again b/c I agree they are overpriced and the glare is terrible. Wind noise hasn't really been an issue for me.

true better than nothing but if you really want to use them I suggest going with an aftermarket bar and some real lights. The glare off the hood is a huge factor in your distance vision with these lights. But if you really really really want them I'll sell you my set.

I have the orange marker lamps. The mounting base is similar to the off road lights, and yes they both had major wind noise issues when they first came out. The rattling and shaking produced a loud continuous fart sound inside the vehicle, that was annoying as hell.

Hummer put out an order to dealers to stop installing them and took several months to come up with a solution. They did come out with a fix that comes with all the new units. The fix has worked for my vehicle perfectly. That noise had me prepared to rip them off the roof and throw them away, but thankfully it is now a non issue.

I would base your decision on the performance of the lights themselves, and not on the wind noise issue. I believe they are fine now.
