Hummer H2For 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.
SMA / Defenderworx made the officially licensed ones with the H2 logo on them. I lucked out and scored a set of black chrome ones for a couple hundred about a year ago. They typically go for a few hundred. They are a bit of a pain to install. On the front doors you need to take the window loose which is easy but be careful, if you have tint, it is very easy to gouge the tint when you are moving the loose glass around inside the door to make room to get to the handle bucket bolts....
I got mine on eBay.
One guy on eBay has some that are raw aluminum. They would have to be plated or painted (or powder coated). He stated they were originally made as a GM option. I suspect the ones he has are not. They look a bit rougher and do not have the H2 logo on them. https://www.ebay.com/itm/132921929346
I can see machine marks in the ones that you perfectly described as rough. I want to have the bucket powder coated gloss black with a chrome handle. I found some made by Pirate but I can’t find any feedback on quality. The logo would be nice but I could do without it. I will have to search for DefenderWorx I guess. I really like the ones you have Mixmansc.
I don’t want the keyhole in the passenger side handle.
Well if you are going to have them powdercoated than those raw ones the one seller has might be the ticket. Might have to do a tiny bit of sanding but powder is pretty forgiving when it comes to hiding tiny imperfections. Other than them not yet being plated or anything that is just what you might want if you are wanting them powder coated as any others are going to be plated which does not take powder very well without a lot of work.
I can’t find a set and at best I will have to order a piece here there and try to match everything. I found 4 handles from sma? I think that’s DefenderWorx but I need to find the buckets. I will continue to look and probably glue my handle on so it can be washed and I will not have to look at. I will look for a used also and have them refinished if needed. I have been looking about 4 hours today and I got nothing
I don’t know if SMI is the same or not. I don’t want to order anything until I have a complete set lined up. I think it’s pretty late in the game to find one. I did talk to DefenderWorx I believe and they did runs of 100 sets. That’s a pretty large group buy.
I contacted the one with the black buckets and they said they were a textured finish and I really like the shape of the handle like you have. I just messaged the guy that you got yours from and told what I was looking for so maybe he can find or trade for a set if he knows somebody will buy it.
I found a set of chrome made by Pro1 or Pirate manufacturing. Does anyone have an opinion on the Brand? I don’t want to bolt a pos on that rattles. I’m not crazy about the shape of the handle but I’m running out of options.
