Product Description
Hummer H3 Door Handle Surround, 5 Pieces, Polished Stainless, 2006-2009 (HV46314)
HV46314 is the five-piece door handle surround kit for the 2006-2009 Hummer H3 4-door SUV. It's from the same family as HV46313, the four-piece version, and the additional piece is the clear difference. What that fifth piece covers is something the catalog doesn't explain, so read on before choosing between the two. Got a question about the H3? Call us on 877-752-3811.
The fifth piece
Neither listing has a note describing its pieces. The catalog doesn't say what the additional piece here is for or where it mounts, and we won't assume an answer that might send you the wrong kit. Open the photos on both listings side by side. They're the only source for the difference, and if they leave a question, call us before ordering. Getting the right kit the first time is easier than swapping later.
The basics
All five pieces are 26-gauge 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish and made in the USA. They mount with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape directly over the existing surface. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing any damage to the surface of the vehicle. Nothing is drilled, and the handles stay in place and work normally.
Before you order
A surround frames the factory handle area, so the handles need to be original and undamaged. Compare each of your handle areas with the product photos. If a handle has been changed, or there's body damage nearby, call first.
Installing five surrounds
Sort all five pieces against the photos before starting, noting where the additional piece goes. Clean each handle area with soap and water, then rubbing alcohol, since skin oils are the usual reason tape won't bond near a handle. Let everything dry. Fit each surround with its liner on and check it doesn't interfere with the handle's movement. Then peel and press firmly around the full outline, holding pressure for a few seconds. Work one spot at a time and save the additional piece for last, once you've confirmed where it goes. Use the handles gently for a day afterward, and avoid washing the doors until the tape has had time to bond fully. The Installation tab has notes on temperature.
Other H3 parts
The sheet cross-lists thirteen parts. Near the handles, HV46312 is a two-piece pillar post trim noted "Rear Door," and HV46304 a four-piece body molding insert kit at 1.75". For the front, HV46306 is a one-piece grille accent noted "Z-Grille Cover." Check each listing's photos.
Care
Mild soap, water and a soft towel keep polished stainless bright, and the shine is in the steel itself, so there is no plating to wear through. Wipe fingerprints with a microfiber cloth, and skip abrasive pads.
Fitment
One row: Hummer H3, 4-door SUV, 2006-2009, no exclusions. Check the year, and count five pieces when the box comes.

Installation tips: Door Handle Surround
- Unpack all 5 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
