If you don't like it, trade someone with a 00-04 model. The trim piece is the same. I'm sure a bunch of guys would gladly through a few bucks your way for the handle and trim piece trade

I would trade my trim in a heartbeat for the 03+ model. I would love to find a set of matching ones so I can have the handles match. Anyone in AZ want to switch?

I have a grey interior and would love to trade with someone so my wife has something besides my steering wheel to use to get in the truck.

I have a tan interior guys. I'd really like to swap with either of you guys if you have a tan interior.

Nevermind. Only passenger side.
I knew I always used something to grab when icy but it turns out it's always been the steering wheel. Lol

Not sure I understand?

If you're willing to swap pieces, you would send me the trim piece and the handle, and I'd send you my trim piece. Since I have no handle, it's just a smooth piece. So I'm confused about what you're asking about.

Do you use the original 99-02 trim in the conversion then? or is there a way to make 08+ fit and look good?

Bought these on accident last night... 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Ford F250 Super Duty Front Pull Grab Handle Pair Tan | eBay

This is what I need right? Everything will just bolt in?

I've been watching those and mode an offer they didn't accept... guess they are down to two sets now. Yes it should be all you need but will have to put holes on both sides for the handles is all.

I could be interested in your old passenger handle

I am nearly positive the handle is longer and not as extended out as the trim is a but recessed to allow for room to grab it without extending the handle so far into the cab. Someone posted a comparison picture

In really want to make the 08+ ones work as they are even less out and more square
