Default New member introduction

Im a new member but long time creeper on your website. I have found a lot of great information on this forum that I couldn't find anywhere else on the Internet. I've owned a 2007 H3 since 2018 . I recently traded it for a 2008 Alpha edition. Upgrades/ mods that have been done to my Alpha include: Bilstein shocks, OME leaf springs, K&N air filter and Magna Flow cat-back exhaust system. I also swapped all the black parts (rims, door handles, push bar, mirrors and hood vent) from my 07 to my 2008 before getting rid of it. "I hate chrome".

Welcome to HF. Nice intro. Seems like you have been busy with some mods.

Now, for THE question. Are you still using the crappy azzed OEM Battery Terminal Connectors?

Anything but the OEM or those cheap auto parts bolt down plate models. I use Stingers, never an issue. Other brands will work just fine. Do a search here and check it out. There is about a zillion threads on that topic and beyong the scop of the New Member Section intros.

Default LED Headlight for 2008 H2

Hello, I drive a H2 Hummer 20008 and wish to replace the headlights to LED for better visibility. I have seen that there are differing levels of quality lights and I'd prefer good quality myself. Does anyone have any suggestions.

I have an H3 and just replaced both the headlights and fog lights with LED. I purchased the Sylvania LEDs for both. Very nice, very bright. Totally made the yellow “hazy” lights nice and bright now.
