Door handles

Hi, I am looking forward to buying new outer door handles for my 1956 Ford f100 currently Dennis carpenter is out of stock and what do you think of Auto metals direct are they good? And where other places who sell good ones, beside that what other options are available like custom and billet stuff?

I noticed if you install them without the pads the thin side head is sharp and could damage the paint are there any ones with flat bottoms or something?

I ordered mine thru ebay- cheapest price. I also got the gaskets. Don't know who seller was. They are fine- look nice and work well.
