    Great Video - shows how easy this fix is! For those needing it, recommend take out the six more star bolts, remove the side rail and do the rear at the same time. Makes the cleaning part way easier! Thanks for posting!

    I would suggest "Butyle Tape". It's a tarry substance, like playdough that you can shape into a snake and put into that hole. I also use it under the marker lights as you may have to change the light bulbs sooner or later and it is easy to remove (like playdough) It's also amazing at keeping a water tight seal. The foam under the marker lights tend to leak as well over time as they get brittle. Everytime you change the bulbs, just add another round snake of butyle tape. There is also a common leak to the front passenger floorboard coming from under the wiper cover. It's a little door where the silicone gets old and leaks. Keep hummin!

    Greetings from the Far East
    I’ve had same vehicle since I was 25. While holding my hummer for a long period, sometimes I search hummer fixing videos and now I’m here.
    Few years ago, I had water leak problem on the top marker lamp which I usually call it as a tiara. My mechanic solved the problem like that. Although good mechanics are nearby, I feel fun to diagnose and to fix my own car. Please update your hummer fixing videos so that I can run my hummer for long time. It’s my arc of my twins for outdoor activities. Of course I did subscribe. See you next time.

    I had a terrible time keeping the wire/grommet down in the hole so ended up using QTY: 2 Q-tips with one side inside the grommet holes and then I bent the other side bent under the light housing frame provided the perfect downward pressure to keep the grommet in place. I just let the Q tip stay in there and it all dried up real nice and tight..

    So how about if you ever needed to remove the wires would you crack it off? Nice video though no bla bla just straight to the point. I have experienced that on my h2 2006 but thinking of doing it. Could you do also a video about under engine oil leaks please. Thanks

    • @hopfammedia
      @hopfammedia  4 роки тому

      Good question! It's a silicon seal that is only attached to the gasket, not the light housing itself. The light housing can easily be removed by unscrewing the exterior screw to get to the wires. Glad you enjoyed the video! We may touch on engine leaks in the future, so stay tuned! :)

      Hi there! I wasn't sure what kind was used but did a little research and it looks like a good option is a T10 amber halogen bulb. I believe they can be bought with the housings or separately: I was able to find several kits on eBay and Amazon, but it seems harder to find just the bulbs.
