Hummer H2 For those who like a little more gleam to their Hummer, the H2 offers a similar rugged look as the H1, but as a lower cost, and with more added features, making it almost a massive luxury SUV.

Ok Thanks. there’s not really a way to repair, it looks like both halves of glass separated. I forgot to take pic with cowl off. It’s got a bunch of stone chips anyhow. I just don’t want the hummer hacked up by installer.

I just had my 07 windshield replaced. Came with new top weatherstrip ( which is falling off, so back to glass shop in the next few says)
how much did it cost? If you don’t mind me asking. I’ll pay cash. I don’t want an insurance claim. Did they use the cold knife method or the wire for removal? Did they hack up any trim?

Yes it came with the new strip at the top. Very soft new rubber compared to the old one...

That I am not sure of.... was not really watching the windshield guy when he installed it. I'm pretty sure it came already attached to the new windshield though.

I have found Safelight to use the cheapest Chinese glass they can get. I had the GM dealer replace mine.
