Predator Motorsports fuel door

[HummerNewbie]

Installed my new fuel door last night. What a PITA this thing was but I like how it looks. Of course this morning it rained just enough to get the truck dirty

Wish i could get some rain down in southern florida for my dang grass i wouldnt mind a free wash lol

I really like the fuel door, looks great, but I still hate paying almost $200 for one. Why was it such a PITA and where did you get it at?

Yeah, we REALLY need rain here too but only go enough to get all the vehicles dirty, not enough to make any difference

I would not have purchased it for that much but got it off Ebay for less than $130 shipped. I heart the Ebay

It was a PITA because you have to attached 5 very small nuts to it on the inside of the fender. I had to pull the wheel well and the black plastic trim below the door to get to them. There was no way I was going to be able to get my hand in there to get the 5th one though. If I had taken the fender off it probably would have been fairly easy but looking at the clips that hold it on there I was not sure how they worked and didn't want to break any of them. Nice thing is you don't have to drill any holes but it was a real b!tch

Don't know positively but would say no, it won't work for the H2. I am sure they have one for the H2 though, check www.predatormotorsports.com and see.

Thats a nice looking fuel door. under $130.00 seems like a good price.
Thats the type im looking for but I think I want one without a key.
The added security is great but a pain to unlock every time you gas up.
Ill get one when I decide

[Scouts Out]

Ok, I like the $130 price, the two hours it would take me to put it on, I do not have. I will get the one from Jason that advertise simple one screw installation... black of course...

I just wonder if one for a Aztek would be cheaper? smae plastic right?

I am sure it will be somewhat of a pain but I do like the added security of the lock.

I was looking for sometime now and was never willing to pay the prices they usually go for but $130 works. Now had I know how difficult is was going to be I probably would have go with one from Jason that you screw on.

Have no idea what the Aztek door looking like but these are aluminum.

It may have been a PITA, but it looks sweet! I think I like that one better than any of the other ones I've seen. How flush does it sit with the fender? Any more pics from different angles?

Thanks Sewie. I am very happy with the look. I have seen some that are more flush when mounted. I didn't get anymore pics but will try to get some later and post them this evening or in the morning.

Took a few more pics this morning.

From the front


From the back. A little blurry but you can see some of the gaps. Might try to tighten it a little more this weekend and see if that helps. Just don't want to deform the fender itself.


From above. You can really see the gap at the top here. It isn't something that is really going to bother me though. Over all I am very happy with the look even though the fit could definitely be better.

Thank you, thank you very much

Now you need one to continue the black on yellow theme

[Hummer23]

It looks great, here is mine I think I paid around 130. I really like having a locking door though, you dont have to worry about people messing with your fuel.
