Well the Husky front flaps are installed. They are a good fit and it's a very easy install (three drill holes per side). Took about 10-15 mins total. And it looks like they'll be a snap to remove when I hit the rocks.

Both flaps appear to cover most, if not all, of the front wheels. We are going to have a little snow tonight, so the real test will be in the morning on the way to work. I'll let you know how much muck they keep off the fenders and the sides of the H3.

Something I would like to know myself, especially from those in the snow county.
I can say this about the GM front mud flaps, they really don't give good coverage. In city, snowy conditions...note slush...they fail miserably.
The front of my rear fender flare gets packed with about an inch of black snow/salt/etc., and looks like a large pile of s**t hanging from the vehicle.
It appears to me from the online photos, the husky flap may hang lower, and possibly extend out about 3/4 of an inch; if so, this might help to prevent this pile of s**t from piling up on the front of the rear fender flare.
I guess the only way we could really tell is if someone has already driven under these conditions in a city with lots of snow, then replaced the GM flaps with the Husky flaps. This is something I might end up doing anyway, but the price of those Husky flaps ($69.00 front only) seems to be considerable.

As previously commented, I installed the Husky's in front a couple of weeks ago. Looks good (see the off-road Pics "Christmas Eve with a G-wagon") and also ~$29 for the pair. Don't have snow out here yet but it sure keeps the gravels from the back flares as I'm spinning up these hills. I got no complaints about 'em.

Did you use the same math as when figuring out your MPG? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I guess I wasn't the only one puzzled by the MPG post?

But these Husky flaps seem better than my OEM flaps.
