Default Slantback

Anybody have pics, info, pricing....anything... on the slantback cover???
If I could get the details on this, I might walk right down there and trade. I think the slantback is awesome!!!
I dream of using my handy-dandy sawzall on my 06 H3 to make my own slantback!

I found a little information. This isn't actually a GM option so you probably wont see it on the lots.
When Hummer brags about having the H3T be the most accessorized vehicle ever, all of those are after market parts by other companies they gave H3Ts to so they can make parts available ready for the market when the H3T starts hitting streets.
This top is made by Snugtop
http://www.snugtop.com/products/HummerH3.php

The bad part about snugtop though is that they purely distribute and their policy is that dealers not post prices online! Apparently even calling snugtop will not get you a price. You can only call the dealers. A great concept if you have a vast dealer network...but their website is telling me that the nearest dealer is 450 miles away from me!!!!! It looks like I would have to tag an extra $300 shipping on to just get a cap freighted to me.
Since its early sunday morning and I cant buy Snugtop in my timezone....From looking at other forums for toyota and people posting paid prices, it looks like it will be about a $2,500 part for just the cap...no drawers or anything. For the "kiteboarding" setup...Im guessing its about $5,000 in extra parts on the bed.

Like BLACK3T said it looks like around 3k. It is a aftermarket non gm company and my concern is the quality. I work for a hummer dealer and the SMA stuff was a nightmare for us. Weare not going to get one of these tops for any of our H3T's. If someone wants one we will order it but it's yours no returns. I think it looks cool but we have been burned so many times on this stuff we don't get in to deep. Steve

I guess we are the crazy dealer. I ordered ours awhile back and it should be to the dealership hopefully on Tuesday. I will post some pics once I get it installed. They figured we can't sell them if we don't have one to display.


Just dropped the H3T off to get the cover put on will have pics this afternoon. It looks really good, it comes with a light inside of the cover as well. Looks like a good quality top.

We got the Slantback installed today and I took pics, but they are to large to post. Any suggestions?
