use chains with caution, if they snap it can be lethal and cause major damage. I've always used straps, and here in the states most offroad parks ban chains.
if you're pulling something treat it like a winch cable and drape a rug, heavy blanket, old leather coat etc over the chain so if it snaps it drops down to the ground instead of becoming a back lashing whip that'll mess up you, others, or your hummer.

Yes they have the hook as they are genuine GM mats bought the set of four for $100 or so on eBay. The cargo mat was $60 from memory.

By the way I have worked as a rigging supervisor for over 12 years, and I am a qualified rigger by trade as well as a height rescue specialist, so I know what I am doing with chains and straps etc etc as I use them daily for work. But I agree they can be dangerous if used incorrectly by people who have no idea.

Well I have finally convinced someone to send me some factory GM offroad driving lights, the ones that mount on to of the windscreen.
Everyone wanted $450-500 to post to Australia and some would not even reply to emails, I have now payed $70 postage, and that also includes some other bits and pieces I have ordered as well, so it appears I have the factory offroad lights on the way.
My h3 already has the mini grill lights but have not connected them yet as I only wanted to pull the dash apart once, while dash is apart will hopefully swap out my head unit and add MP3 input as well.

I wanted to do a new head unit also but i was concerned about the factory phone thats built in not working with a new head unit. anybody know anything about this issue? will the phone still work with a aftermarket head unit?
