Drivers side grab handle?
I just found out that this was a thing... I would kill for one on my truck! I tried looking on ebay and found nothing, is there anywhere else I could be looking?

02 does not have the holes for the handle. Would have to drill and weld in nuts. 08 trim is made a lot different at the headliner.

the pinch weld and mount is there under the drivers A pillar
you will need a 05-07 A Pillar trim piece because it already has the cutouts for the handle itself...and of course you will need a 05-07 grab handle. position the trim piece, then drill out the 4 bolt holes and enjoy. pretty easy if you can find the right colored trim piece

my 02 doesn't have it...I actually have the grab handle from my 2006 F-250 sitting in the garage.
I've contemplated doing this...but the handle is grey and my interior is tan. and I don't want to screw up cutting my trim piece
I might visit a 2005 F-250 that is being parted out and grab that piece. I've gotten parts of the truck before and it had that piece last time I was there

I'd love to add this to my Ex. It's my wife's daily driver and since both her knees cause her debilitating pain, it would help her get in and out of the Ex and make her life just a tad easier.

Shouldn't both of your hand be on the steering wheel ?
