Default Ed's06h3 hummer build

I figured i might as well start a build thread. I have an 06 H3 (base) black. I got it from a nissan dealer 3 years ago..

She was chromed out in the beginning: chrome side mirrors, grille, door handles, etc.....

This is how she looks today:


My first mod i got rid off the Bridgestone duelers and picked up a set of Goodyear Duratracs..


I wanted a little bit more power so i picked up a Air-Doc intake:


GM performance (touring) dual exhaust with chrome tips:



Navigation system:


Replaced the chrome fuel door with the Defender Worx (black) fuel door


Then i replaced the oem tail-lights with the LED tail-lights and a pair of light guards


Finally got rid off the chrome grille and was lucky enough to pick up a black grille off craiglist!

You have been busy, like a one man economic recovery unit! KUDOS!



Everything you have done has been good stuff, but I really like the light switches, where and how you mounted them.

Thanks........it was a easy install (switches) you just have to remove the center console (there is a screw behind the shift **** you will need a Allen key to remove it)...when you remove it the console just pops off...then you just measure & cut from there...I know some newer model hummers have the coin hole
