Great things you can do to your Hummer
The new snorkel, it is two of the 4 inch rubber sewer pipe extentions (like I had one of before) with a piece of 4 inch PVC in between them.. I smashed this against some pretty big tree limbs on the big Texas outing and didnt have a problem with it.... BTW the snorkel is for accidental waves and/or splashes, it does ot mean you can go through water all the way up to the mushroom.. It's just a precaution!
This is Patricks 96 Hummer with a GPS and Notebook computer with Delorme software, I also have this setup in my truck and it really is nice to have every street in the USA handy. [Email Eddie] [Back to Main] [ROCS]ROCS] Go back to Eddie's Hummer Page Hummer Goodies! Check this out!

Here is the finished
drink holders! and they are great! Hold large Coke bottles (the plastic 1 liter bottles).
and just about anything else! I have gone over some pretty big bumps without spilling a
drop... 
Here is the Hummer in our shop, I am starting to design the
overhead console to hold all the fun electronics.... Here is a BEFORE shot of the truck
with the top off...
Here is a picture of one
of the test fittings of the overhead...I didn't think I would like an overhead console
with the opentop but this test fitting looks like I might like it alot. There is still
plenty of open space above my head with the trucks top off. The console comes out 1 ft
from the top of the window, in a normal car or truck this wouldn't work at all, but in
this truck it puts the gear in front fo the driver at a great easy to see place without
haveing to move your head to far off the road while driving... I think it may work out
well. Next step is to upholster it.
Here is a picture of my
budget air intake riser. Comercial ones I have seen are several hundred bucks! I fashioned
this out of a rubber sewer pipe extension from the hardware store (about $10) and you can
easily make it as tall as you want with a piece of PVC pipe. It attaches with large hose
clamps just like the original Hummer part. If water gets to the top of this you are in
trouble.. As you may have seen some of the military ones have this above the roof of the
truck. 
Here are
some of the antenna mounts on my truck, some folks have asked to see pictures of them. I
have a convertable Hummer and there is no solid roof or roof rack to mount a bunch of
antennas or lights so I have to be creative.... I have also thought of mounting an antenna
on the Hummer grill guard up front but havent explored that possibility yet... has anyone
else mounted one up front on the grill guard? The first picture is the rear view of the
Hummer I took this shot so you could see how the 9 ft CB whip looks. I lie the short
fiberglass antenna there for convenience but everyone says the 9ft steel whip looks
better....I just have to remember to fold it down before I close the garage door on it
(again)... The next picture is a closeup of the bumper mount, I just attached the mirror
mount bracket to the bumper bolt, it is very sturdy. The next picture is the front
widnsheild mount for my Ham Radio antenna. I usually have a tri-band antenna that folds
down mounted here but today I have the 1200MHz antenna screwed on here.... Next picture is
the police Scanner antenna, it is a magnetic mount and it sticks on the metal brace for
the convertible hummer rear roll bar...
