H3 Spare delete cover - where can i get this? (pic inside)

[4u33er]

Anyone know where I can get this?

 

[hockeymanam]

from what i have seen about this its a custom piece but its probably not a good idea to drive around with out a spare unless you plan on relocating the tire...just my 2 cents

doesnt gobi make one? Its not identical to that but its similar.

You can drive around without a spare as long as you have compressor and a repair kit. There are many vehicles out there without spares and with repair kits in their place. They come that way OEM.

Lots of cars have run flats these days. From H1s to Mini Coopers.

I thought Gstyles used to sell that piece but I don't see it on their website. One of the aftermarket vendors sold those. I think Gobi used to sell a replacement plate for the tire delete for people that bought racks with tire carriers on them.

if I'm driving ~ 50 miles or less from my house I don't normally bring a spare for my Hummer. I have AAA Premier if my friends can't pick me up to go get a spare from my garage. but more than 50 I will put a spare tire and the carrier on.

if you mainly do small trips and not many longer ones and if you could find a cover like that that is fairly easy to take on and off. then you could put the factory spare mount and tire back on if needed. Or even get an aftermarket bumper with a swingaway tire carrier.

I've been waiting to use these pictures, this person just used and oven pan and mount. I think it came out pretty cool and cheap.

those are some nice fender flares too

That's awesome Solidusj! Cheap and a great place for antennas.

Maybe our friend Scarsman can fab something for us . . .

:shifty: That's made in Japan... I know that cover. I guess you can buy it only in Japan. www.ratuken.co.jp. I don't know if they ship it to USA.

I never used my spare wheel since I had my H3. It's cool to put spare tire delete cover on your H3. I had GoBi spare tire delete cover on mine and I loved the look.

Go for it.

Here what the GOBI one looks like.

The one in your pictures uses double sided tape. Cheap quality.

They don't flare!

I remember that cookie sheet fix. Wonder if it is non-stick??:giggle:
You would be able to talk out the rear really good down low.

That Gobi looks like a flat sheet of "starboard" material available thru marine suppliers.

 

[4u33er]

Does the Gobi one drill new holes to the tailgate? In the picture shows 6 bolts/studs

 

[rts23msu]

No, it attaches with a small bracket from the inside through the air vent hole. The outside bolts are just for show.
