Mr. Leitner - Many of us have the need for a black color as well as those who like metal (chrome or brushed). The H2 offers the Lux and Adven package for H2 - the Adven package is black, so there are plenty of black gas caps out there on our H2s - I know a lock cap would be wonderful given the potential for people to destroy cars by dumping stuff (sugar) down gas tanks of costly rigs like our H2. Will wait for information for your product
Thanks

I still don't know why Harry claimed to be ONE & ONLY LEGAL gas door without making a product and nothing to sell, while so many others have been selling similar gas doors for months. Is Harry only refering to the HUMMER logo? or he was the only one bothered to apply for patents? No disrespect to Harry, cause he seems like a knowledgeable gentleman and professional; but it happens often, the copycat went to the patent office first, ended up closing down the original designer.

It' still unclear if Harry will be offering his gas cap with the Hummer logo. I'm only interested in it if it has the Hummer Logo. If he can't produce with that logo, then I'll get get one of the ones that are kicking around right now. Let us know about that logo Harry. Thanks.

Hello again,
I do not want to over post regarding this subject, but want to make everyone clear on what we plan to do regarding our Alloy Fuel Door for the H2:
1) Patent issues: Yes, we hold numerous patents on our Alloy Fuel Door design, the major one being US6352295. The Alloy Fuel Door on the Mitsubishi Eclipse, Dodge RAM, Mazda Miata/ M6, Chrysler PT Cruizer,Ford Bullit Mustang and F-Series trucks, Mercedes M-Class, Chevy Silverado/ Avalanche, and many others are all AMP Research produced products and the majority are OEM products supplied directly to the automotive factories. The Alloy Fuel doors you see on Ebay, including the ones for the H2, are all knock offs. There is one company who does not infringe on our patent that does make an H2 fuel door (fueldoors.com). The companies producing infringing profducts have been advised and are being halted from producing/ selling.
We are not trying to halt competition; however, the blatant copies out there are dificult to distinguish at first from our Alloy Fuel Door and we do not want cheap knock offs to be associated with AMP Research. We spend a considerable amount of time engineering and making sure our products pass all OEM quality standards, like corrosion and durability. I am sure that many H2 owners can attest that the other fuel doors that they have bought do not even come close.
2) The feedback I have received on this site has been very valuable...looks like we may have to offer black, either black chrome or powdercoat as an option.
3) The Hummer Logo was machined into the first prototypes since they were being sent straight to GM...unless we receive the license for the Hummer logo (which looks very promising), it will not be included in the production door. We may include "AMP Research" or leave it it blank...
4) Again, thanx for the input. I am not knowledgeable about what exactly the H2 owners want, but I am getting a better idea.
Thank you and regards,
Harry Leitner
P.S. Thank you to the owner of the site (Jason) for his email!

Again,
AMP Research is not associated with Hummer Man and he will not be selling the AMP Research Alloy fuel door...his claim that he will have them by Mid-March is not true. No dissrepect, but I have no idea how he came up with this info...I did have a talk with him and we made sure we are on the same page...
After talking to Jason, the owner of this site, and getting his o.k., I will let forum members know where and when it will be available.
Regards,
Harry Leitner

The person selling the chorme gas door on ebay also has a black powder coated door available, it looks great. If you want something that locks, go with the locking stant gas cap and don't put that ugly lock on the outside of a nice smooth door. It just ruins the look and the cap serves the same purpose. I am sure you remember the old days when you had to use a key to get in your car, before keyless entries were standard features. Think about all those scratches around the key hole where you missed the first time or other keys on your key chain scratched the surface. Do you really want a bunch of scratches on your new chrome or black door. I went with the chrome and it is perfect.

I read all the information on the thread here and understand that AMP Research is supposed to have the fuel door. My comment was not meant to be misconstrued as being directed at any one person......it was however, pointed at this thread and the opportunity to purchase one...assuming it would be available with the Hummer logo that matches the OEM wheels. If AMP research is the manufacturer, perfect.........however if another legitimate manufacturer produces one.....I will purchase it when available. I am not really interested in the arguments posed that are related to patent infringements since I have dealt with many of my own patent infringements in days past. I am simply a potential customer to someone who produces a product of my liking.
Thank you for your time

I am interested in a black cover with locking, but having another key sounds like a pain. It would be great if it was possible to have a button inside that popped the gas door open or unlocked it. The button might go under the light switch in the blank there.

Seems like the gas door discussion on the one with the Hummer logo has died....Did Amp Research give up on it ?

What ever happened to this particular fuel door? So much controversy was raised over who would be selling the product and then Harry disappeared and never came back with an explanation of why not?
Does anyone have this door with the HUMMER logo?

Hummerman? Harry? I don't really care which of you is legit----- I'm more interested in sending you some cash and receiving this gascap cover as soon as it's available. please contact me via email when this is available as originally pictured (Hummer logo, locking or not are both fine, and matching the factory stock wheels(brushed look, as pictured innitially on this thread) is just groovy.
Thanks.
