Great new design, you just have to drill some holes.
TAIL RATED!

Actually, I agree with you. It would probably be a rare instance when a tail light lens gets broken and it would probably be when you were backing up as you said.

That happened to me a week after I bought my H2. One of the yo yo's I work with was getting the "tour" of the truck and he grabbed the tail guard by the outside rail and then leaned away from the truck popping the tape and causing the guard to pull around towards the tail gate and in turn bending the 2 metal inside support brackets. But that wasn't the worst of it. I opened the tailgate afterwards without realizing the tail guard was in the way now and I got a nice knick in my (at the time) 1 week old paint. I bent the brackets back to straight and replaced the tape and remounted the bracket. What was really funny was when I told him he owed me $250.00 for a new set of tail guards because those brackets were not available he almost had a stroke.
You are dead wrong about this. Although many malls and parking areas have a maintenance crew on staff that are responsible for tree maintenance, I have had several close calls with tree branches while both backing in to a parking space as well as backing out. Without my tail light guards I can only imagine the horror of having the lens sctratched or worse...broken out. As H2 owners I feel we need to unite, and petition area malls to keep tree branches, scrubs, and other potentially hazaredous shrubbery trimed to a safe level so that we may avoid this type of disaster.
In closing, Tail Light Gurads are an essential accessory for the true H2 enthusiast.

Spike, the easy solution would be not to have them at all
The reality is that apart from when driving backwards and even then, the tail light light guards are more for show than anything else. Not as though there is anything wrong with that, I've got them, but I've never seen a tail light get broken by a branch or anything, although I'm sure it happens.
What is embarrassing though, is when people grab hold of them or lean against them and they almost fall off. Words like "It only looks tough" come to mind </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

HAHAHAHA!! You deserved that one James!
Tail light guards. No child could climb a hummer without them.
If it has tires or testicles, you're going to have trouble with it
