Hi every one!!



I've just discover something wrong with my 2008 H2,I guess nothing really serious.Is my back light casing.Is loose?? <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... ngHead.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':banghead:' /> I just picked it up 2 weeks ago.I think maybe is a clip missing or broken??Is this a easy fix??Should I just bring to a GM dealership,since I bought extended warranty( dun know if that would be cover? <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... /blink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' /> )Any idea guys??



Thanks in advance!!

Is there not a couple of screws holding the lense in place? If no other info , definitly return to dealer and ask them about it.

there are clips on that side.. looks like one is missing...we can take a look at it at the next timmies meet or if you want.. open your tail gate, you will find two screws on the inside for your lens, unscrew them then pull the light out and towards the middle of the truck, slowly..the light should come out.. you will need to look for two clips on the outside section of the lens, i imagine one fell off somehow if you didn't notice it before.. look inside the hole on the chassis of the truck where the wiring harness is.. it will probably be in there...like i said, if you want to wait till the 30th, we can look at it at the timmies meet.

remind me and I'll bring my catspaw units lighted magnetic pick-ups great for retreving clips that get in little tight places

it look like the lens housing was not properly installed. maybe, they probably replaced a bulb and didn't put back the lens housing properly. the gap on the side clearly indicates that the holding clips were not on correctly.

Thanks Guys!!!I finally took the housing off today.And noticed that both clips are broken( from before ),I can see some electric tape around the clips area <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... unsure.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':unsure:' /> But actually is a very easy fix,just unscrew that one screw,take the broken clip out.Then replace it with the new one <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... ght_on.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':right_on:' /> !!

But finding the part is harder than I thought.First I found out the part number for it,then I start calling the GM dealership near my area.When I gave them the part number,the dude told me that they dun carry those clips,and he also check other dealerships for me....It turns out that Canada don't carry that part no more <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... /blink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' /> !!!

So I ended up order it through a US site..And paid much more shipping cost than the product itself... <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... ngHead.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':banghead:' />

that should be still cover with warranty from the dealer you've bought from.

I hope that in the future we will not run out of parts for our beloved Hummer.
